A doctor has provided 1 answer

Preg. fluid shifts.: A pregnant woman increases her circulating fluids dramatically including adding 4 extra units of blood. This extra fluid shifts between circulating blood (extracellular) and fluid spaces in limbs (intracellular). Your sister's OB MD must watch and monitor her blood pressure, weight, and cardiac condition carefully as pregnancy induced hypertension can develop rapidly.
