I’m bloated with water retention all over... it is part of the pregnancy symptoms. Honestly, I don’t think anything really help to reduce the swelling.. But if you swell especially at ankle/fave/hand... you might want to check if you have pre-eclampsia. Do consult your gynae. Don’t worry too much about it. A Happy Mama, a healthy baby. Take good care and God bless you and baby.

Water retention is due to lack of fluids so try to drink more and elevate your legs when you go to sleep. Don't wait until you're thirsty to drink that means you are already hydrated. Important to drink more when you're pregnant. But if the swell is very sudden, do seek your gynae's advice cos it might be preeclampsia.

Could be due to water retention. Drink plenty of water and take your supplements without fail. Soak your legs in warm salt water (the hotter the better) Also elevate your legs at night.

Elevate your both legs with a high pillow.
