It sounds like you have some pretty bad
edema. That's odd for someone only 6
weeks along. You sound like you're
retaining a lot of water, and probably
wanna get that checked out!

Id go to the dr's now. You should go to
the drs as soon as you find out anyways,
and tell your parents when your ready. Id
been to the drs to have my pregnancy
confirmed and even went to my first
prenatal appointment b4 I ended up telling
my parents.

You should tell your doctor right away.
Fluid retention in pregnancy can result in
a condition called preclampsia(not sure if
spelled right) if left untreated it can
result in serious complications for you
and your baby.
