A member asked:
What trimester do you start to retain water?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Very variable : Some of my patients have started as early as 24 weeks, but it is more common in the last 4-6 weeks of pregnancy. Decreasing salt and salty foods and increasing water and putting the feet up can help. If it is severe tell your doctor.
