My fingers are so swollen

They look like stuffed sausages. My feet aren't pretty either.

I hear ya! Sometimes I feel like I'll never look "normal" again!
Just keep an eye on your swelling. Any headaches that wont go away with rest and tylenol...or blurry vision aren't good.
My mw tells me to lay on my side for 45m per day....yeah right! I have been nesting hard for like a week...so hard to lay down in the middle of the day!!

I've been thinking about this, given the whole "lie on your left side for 30 minutes 3 times a day" instruction. I think what I need is some kind of wheeled cart and an oar. So I can lie down on my left side, but still, like, go to work meetings and fold laundry and that kind of thing. It might be a little strange, but really, no stranger than the prospect of trying to lie on my cubicle floor for 1.5 hours a day.

That is so funny : and true.
Sometimes the recommendations just don't fit life. And I don't have other little ones at home to take care of!
