Oh no, sorry you're not feeling well. I thought it was high bp that was a symptom of pre e? Did they not seem worried? Feel better

Don't you have maternity triage to go to, instead of a regular A&E? Here after 20 weeks you just walk-in at maternity triage, to be seen by Ob docs and nurses?

Was told by birthing unit to go to a&e first but after having a good rest
My feet look mire human than elephant now guess I do have to take it easy
Lol !!!

Low bp is ok, it's if you have a high bp then there's cause to worry. I have swollen feet and hands right now, its the worst. Keeps me up at night, but its the most common preggo symptom out there. 80% of preggos will get like this. As long as you don't have a high bp, you're fine
