Blackbird, yes I would have that checked out just in case. Hope everything is okay.

I had the swelling in one leg as Skorpy described. Then after the birth, both legs, ankles and feet were like tree trunks for two weeks. I was a bit shocked till the midwives told me all that fluid had to go somewhere and it was nothing sinister.

Just make sure you get yourself some really comfortable and large shoes. =)
