Anyone experiencing leg/feet swelling, towards the bitter end?
I have been doing so well, no swelling, stable blood pressure, now 3.5 weeks before, legs are swelling, feet are swelling, aside from the pain down under, feels like I'm carrying a ball in between my legs! Sorry...just venting...I'm just feeling soooooo miserable right now.

I hear ya!!! 
I haven't really had much swelling until I hit 34-35 weeks. Now my feet/hands are swollen by the end of the day and I am really starting to feel pain down below. I have my first internal on Thursday, and I'm praying that I am making some progress!

Re: Anyone experiencing leg/feet swelling, towards the bitter end?
I started swelling around 33 weeks.
Be careful, swelling can be a sign of pregnancy induced hypertension or pre eclampsia!
I actually did have pregnancy induced hypertension and wound up on strict bedrest from 33 weeks until I delivered at 38w6d.
I'd give your doc a call and give them a heads up on the swelling. They may want you to come in for a blood pressure check.
Laying on your left side with your feet elevated should help reduce some swelling.

I worry about that b/c I have a history of high blood pressure, but its been stable off of meds this entire pregnancy. I have a non-fetal stress test tomorrow and they will check my blood pressure, so hopefully its ok.

At 37 weeks I am walking on 2 water balloons by the end of the day. This didn't start until I was about 33-34 weeks. My blood pressure has been perfect.
