A member asked:
Ten weeks pregnant and today my legs are achey especially when standing. fingers slightly swollen also. is this normal? blood pressure is normal
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: The hormone progesterone, which is elevated in pregnancy, can cause all of these symptoms. Pregnancy is hard, as you already know, right? The swelling and water retention could be related to diet and/or activity level, have they changed recently? Consider warm bath to help relax achey legs. You're right too early for worries like pre-eclampsia. Good luck!
