Probably yes. : With partial recanalization you can still have discomfort of the leg, but not outright pain. Should be much less in intensity than when you were initially diagnosed with dvt. Following DVT the incidence of post-phlebitic syndrome is high and can result in chronic swelling, discomfort, and fatigue of legs. See a vascular surgeon for an evaluation as these may be related to pregnancy too.
