I think you all should know…. The rumors are true I am starting to look like this fluffy guy…
While we were gone, my belly has defiantly gotten bigger, Would you believe at our last apt (Feb 9th) Charly was measuring at 8inch and 13oz… I really wonder what she is at today (I am at 21 weeks 2days, I feel like she has grown so much since then) I do love being able to feel her little squirms and nudges she does not move a lot, but loud noises seem to startle her. In addition to my belly getting rounder my feet and ankles oh heck who am I joking my entire legs have swollen up… Would you believe I can press on my legs and they indent and stay that way for at least 5 min if not longer… (Yes I feel like a science fair project).
Really Don’t believe me just check out my Feet…
Yes my right foot is turning a lovely shade of Purple… Yours would too if it swelled up to what feels like 5X its normal size. (Really though should I be worried?) If you see me hobbling along at the store or around town please don’t laugh these puppies are painful, I worry with every step that they just might pop open… Kevin is convinced I am over doing things (he is cute he gets very protective of Charly and me)…
I should mention we just got home form our cruise, we had so much fun; post to come of our adventures. But right now my family room looks like this… I need to start doing some serious laundry; Wish me luck!
***Update***
My Feet are now back to normal… Thank you everyone for your concern. Rest and elevating my feet were the trick (Oh My goodness, this means Kevin was right)

Welcome home!! Sorry, no advice on swelling, that is ONE problem that I never experienced, I think I had every other problem!! :) I'm with ya, I hate the unpacking mess! Good luck and I agree with Kevin, take it easy!!
my feet would look like that! you need to get off them and raise them up and have Kevin wait on you! so glad you had fun! (and your feet look like they really hurt, I say wear flip flops everywhere!)
not to alarm you but you REALLY should talk to your dr about your swelling. Your blood pressure could be up or you could be developing something. I have never seen swelling like that at only 21 weeks. That usually happens at the end
Has your doc seen your legs like that? That looks painful you poor thing. I agree with Kim - get those feet up!!! Seriously James. Let me know if you need anything at all!
Love you! I can't wait to meet little Charly.
