It's likely just water retention. Good luck, mama! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-to-worry-about-swelling#post-1284932 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 16:34:55 +0000 mrs.shinerbock 1284932@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I had uneven swelling (only one ankle) and my dr said not to worry about it. BUT it can be an indicator of a blood clot, so it may be worth a call to your doc or at least bring it up at this weeks appointment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-to-worry-about-swelling#post-1284925 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 16:32:56 +0000 MamaMoose 1284925@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>uneven swelling definitely warrants a call to your doctor. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-to-worry-about-swelling#post-1284919 Mon, 16 Dec 2013 16:30:43 +0000 MamaBehr 1284919@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When do you get nervous about swelling? I wasn't swollen At all this whole pregnancy, and then Saturday BAM! My ankles got huge and haven't gone down at all. They are just getting bigger. And the left one is bigger than the right, is that something to worry about? I'm 37 weeks.. </p>
