Don't be freaked out if your swelling gets worse just after you've had your bub! After DS1 my legs became tree trunks, it was awful! Fortunately it went down fairly quickly

I drank heaps more water when pg with DS2 and didn't get much swelling thankfully. I'll have to remember to drink heaps this time around.

ETA - Oh yeah, like Fiona said - the kilos coming off afterwards rocks! I would have a day where I couldn't stop peeing all day and when I'd weigh myself another kilo had come off
