If anyone is worried, my doc just said to keep cool and drink more fluids.

Okay, so this morning my hands were stiff and swollen. When I try to make a fist my knuckles hurt... waiting to hear back from the doctor's office.

My feet are swollen and now my hands are getting it, too. I didn't swell like this with my first! But she was born in April, well before it got really hot. This time I'm not due until August 22.

My hands get it worse then my feet, yesterday morning I was trying to get ready for a wedding and I kept dropping everything because I had no grip what so ever. Hubby got fed up with my racket and ended up doing my hair and make up for me. Usually once I soak in warm water it goes down but now it seems it is here to stay :( just a few more weeks, just a few more weeks.
