28 weeks, and today I have slight swelling in my feet. I didn't have this with S, and I don't think I did with DS...not this early anyways!
I know the drill, drink water and all...but I can't be the only mama who started swelling this early...right?

Mine started around then last time around. Lots of fluids and feet propping helped

I just started to have extreme swelling yesterday. I BLEW UP and fast. I came home and laid on my left side with my feet propped up and it has been better today.
With DS I was so swollen around 24 weeks I had to stop wearing my rings.

My feet started swelling early. Are you on your feet a lot during the day?

Mine did! I believe swelling started in the first tri for me, but it was much milder than it is now in the third.
By 28 weeks I was definitely having some full on swelling. Nothing a little water and walking to get my blood flowing didn't cure.

@mrsbookworm: no! And today even less so because all I did was take ds to the movies. All sitting here!
@matador84: I have my feet propped up right now. Hopefully by morning this will be gone for a few more weeks!

@Dandelion: lay on your left side too if you can...it usually helps a lot, especially with the blood flow.

With my 1st, my feet began to swell early! I think early 2nd trimester if I was on them a lot. By the end I looked like you could pop me with a pin. I was swollen ALL OVER. This time no real swelling so far at 20 weeks. I thought maybe because it's winter? Last time I was pregnant all summer.
Eta: And not much really helped. Propping them up helped a bit but they just stayed swollen all the time.

I'm a few days behind you, and my fingers have been swollen! It's weird, because it's first thing in the morning, and it goes away when I get up and move around. My feet haven't been bad yet, though.

Oh no, not already! I did last time along with hypertension in the late 20's- no thanks to work stress.
So far, so good this time, can't believe I'm still wearing my rings.

At a little further along than you, I texted a picture of my ankles to my husband because my ankles looked broken, they were so swollen. I had been on my feet all day teaching- brutal.
