Last week, my ankles were swelling so bad that they looked as though they "belonged to a 250 lb woman" (Ryan's words - he's a gem) and my blood pressure was climbing a bit, so my doc prescribed a sedentary lifestyle (her words). Not bedrest - I'm allowed a stroll, an errand here and there, a few hours at the office when necessary. But I'm working from home and taking it easy. The swelling and blood pressure can be signs of some nasty pregnancy complications. Lucky for me, my lab work is coming back great and it seems I don't have those complications. But I guess the doc still didn't like the look of my cankles (ankles that look like continuation of one's calves), so sedentary lifestyle it is.
Its been helping, though. And I'm not really minding the whole bed-as-an-office thing. I'm a bit bored and miss my long walks with Roadie but, other than that, happy camper I am.
