I am swelling so bad my feet are s huge at the moment that it hurts, I am due anyday now. I have no ankle anymore. I hope I do not explode. I am really worried that I could be hurt by the swelling. Like bust a blood vessel. Hmm hope not. I guess I am goign to go lay down I am haveing brxton hicks contractions. The doctor said I was one centimeter yesterday but as we all know that dont mean anything at all. Good night/ mourning

Hi my friend had the swelling really bad as well..Did they test you to see if you had preclampsia? That's what she had and they ended up inducing her labor.
