Hi everyone,

I've had a relatively uneventful pregnancy (suspected blood clot in lung at 25 weeks notwithstanding) right up until the week before I left work. This was 2 weeks ago now, and I left early one day because my hands and feet had ballooned, so I wanted to go to the GP and get the BP and urine tested ASAP.
Now, that was fine- BP was quite low, urine free of all and any protein- and I was told to go home and put my feet up, which I was quite happy to do.

But ever since then, my hands have been really really stiff! Curling them into fists actually hurts a bit; they feel quite clumsy and I can really feel the stiffness when I rub them together. Has anyone had this? Any ideas as to why? Or how to treat it? Will it go away once the baby's here?

All advice will be leaped on with cries of glee and gratitude...
