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..

uneven swelling definitely warrants a call to your doctor.

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.

My midwives prefer to be called with any sudden swelling. It's likely just water retention. Good luck, mama!

Any sudden swelling is cause for a doctor visit.
