But am I retaining water and what can I do to help it, besides low salt diet and putting my legs up. I'm scared I will get preeclamica. My blood pressure is fine also. I don't see my doctor for 2 more weeks.

Answer 1

Definately time to call your doctor.  There are so many ways this could go and it sounds like you are already doing what home remedies you can do.  Are you on your feet during the day or are you able to keep them up most of the day?  You may need to take more frequent breaks in your daily routine and afternoon naps may give you some relief.

Answer 2

Call your dr asap. And actually I've heard drinking lots of water helps too.  

Answer 3

Dont wait 2 weeks, try to see your doctor now
