Water retention already?????

JLW0504

So, I am just about 6 weeks and I am already holding water like crazy!! I've gained 5 lbs already as a result of this. I also have some pitting edema (not too terrible though). Does anyone have any low-sodium recipes they like and can share? I am not wanting this to get out of control as I'm still really early into my pregnancy.

How much water are you drinking? As crazy as it sounds the more water you drink the less edema you will have.
