Pregnant after a Loss
A little update on me
So I have been having lots of swelling for the past couple of weeks and had my Dr appt Tuesday. She is quite concerned that my cankle issue is out of control at too early in the stage of pregnancy. My feet swell over 3 - 4 times the size they are by then end of the day and when I wake up in the morning they are still swollen to about twice the size. My BP is still good right now though. She had a ton of blood tests drawn, a meal glucose test and urine tests done yesterday. I go back next week to see her again however during my appt she said if I can't get this under control a little then I am bedrest bound. She warned me to keep a close eye on preterm labor signs and if I don't feel the baby move for more than an hour to head to the hospital.
After discussing with my boss he feels that once we hire my replacement (interviews today and tomorrow) that I need to start working 1/2 days here and 1/2 from home for a while then full time from home in maybe a month. I am so grateful he is a great boss and being proactive to what the Dr is likely to tell me in a few weeks.
Mine are worse than the pic below

He said the most important thing is bringing home a healthy baby, seriously having a male boss that gets it is such a relief.
Oh gosh I didn't see the whole picture below before I was wondering if those were your poor feet.
I'm glad your boss is being co-operative, and your doctor so supportive.

It not that they hurt so much during the day but it's like a tightness feeling that creeps up my calfs but by the end of the day the do hurt quite a bit. I am finding at night that I somehow flex my foot during my sleep giving myself a charlie horse in my calf that makes me want to scream in the middle of the night.
I hope the rest helps. It sounds like your boss is super nice.
