34w3d- my amniotic fluid was 6.5 today and I was told I needed to increase the amount of water I'm drinking and if it gets below 5 I will be delivering that day, so I'm a little nervous. I already drink like 90 onces of water a day. What can I do to increase my hydration and water retention?
Is it strange to start showing around 4 weeks… I know it’s not the actual baby…. But maybe more water retention? I also had a small fuppa. But it has definitely started to get more pronounced…. Thoughts?? #4weeks #belly

Today was Kai’lani due date but she came last Friday on July 14th due to late pregnancy preeclampsia. In love is a understatement but Im struggling cause i lost so much blood from the placenta removal and had to have a blood transfusion. So yea emotional trauma from that! But the most immediate thing is the edema in my legs and feet. I can’t take water retention pills cause it affect my blood transfusion recovery so I’m lost and in tears!

My feet and legs are SO swollen it’s absurd. Docs have said it’s normal after C-section but I’m so over it. The skin around my ankles hurt so bad I can’t wait for this fluid retention to fuck off already. Any tips on how to make it calm down faster? I’m trying to elevate feet, wear compression socks and drink lots of water but 6 days postpartum I’m still all gross & puffy

I really did not like last week, I had really bad urine retention. Anybody else ever dealt with not being able to pee, like a uti but without pain? I told my midwife but she said to not worry unless there was pain so I see her soon and hopefully I can continue to urinate 🙄 Such a scary feeling when you have a full bladder but can't go, I've been drinking lots of water and cranberry juice to make sure everything is working. No problems this week so far .
