Hi I am 36 & 5 weeks pregnant this is my second pregnancy... but this time round the swelling in my feet and hands are three times worse... I've gone to the doctor on wednesday and he just said its pregnancy... but the problem is my joints are killing me from all the swelling no matter how much rest I get it just wont go down.. and I'm also very flushed as if I was out sun bathing all day and have got burnt...... any ideas what might help or should I just go to the hospital and see what they say???? not sure
