Hi my name is Amanda and I am 27 years old. I am just shy of 18 weeks and I have had some issues and I know preeclampsia is not common before 20 weeks but I would like some answers/help. I have not talked to my doctor yet. I have lately had swelling in my face (especially around my eyes) when i wake up every morning. I have swelling in my hands (it comes on suddenly) and I have swelling in my feet,ankles, and legs. I have been drinking a lot because I am very thirsty but i have not been urinating as much as i think i should with the amount that I am drinking. I get chronic headaches so I don't know if it has anything to do with anything and I also have pretty bad back pain. I don't know if im worrying for nothing, but i didn't have any of these symptoms with my son. Any help or suggestions would be great.Thank you!
