Pre-eclampsia?: Swollen feet are common during pregnancy, but when present with headache, you should get your BP (blood pressure). If BP is elevated, go check with you obstetrician asap as you may have or be at risk of pre-eclampsia, a dangerous condition which can be corrected if diagnosed and treated on a timely basis. Lab tests if showing incr protein in the urine may explain the foot swelling in pre-eclampsia.

Elevate the feet: Support hose can be used as well, speak to your oby-gyn regarding your headache and what they would prefer you to take or not to take.

Pre-eclampsia?: Definitely check your blood pressure, as one explanation is the eclampsia complication. Headaches are typically more common early in pregnancy.
