Anyone Else Have Swelling Already?

With my three previous pg I only ever experienced swelling in my feet and ankles after delivery. Well last night after watching a movie with the family I went to stand up and my right ankle started hurting. It kept hurting for a little bit and so I took a look at it with dh and lo and behold they were mildly swollen. They seem to be not as swollen today but I am still having the ankle pain. I know they say it is worse at night and I am trying to keep my feet up today and continuing to drink lots of water.
I also wondered if anyone is experiencing a bruised feeling in their abdomen? I have a tender spot on my upper abdomen that seems to move to wherever Adam's bottom is at that moment. If I press it it hurts like a bruise and hurts worse during a BH contraction.
And if those two weren't enough I also have seemed to develop a spot on the white of my eyeball just on the outside of my iris. It doesn't hurt and I only know it's there by looking at it in the mirror. It's the oddest thing. It's not pink eye and I am not really sure what it is as I've never had a bump on my eyeball before. So I am going to try and get an appt with an eye dr to get it checked out. Just wondering if anyone else has ever experienced that before?

I always swell in my 3rd trimester. Feet, ankles, and my calves turn into cankles. :(
At the end of the day when i take off my socks i have indents in my legs. I try to drink a lot of water and keep my feet up at night.
It's funny you mention the bruised feeling. My whole tummy feels bruised, honestly. It is mildly, mildly painful almost. I wonder what causes that? That is another one that is new to my 3rd. I'll be interested to see if anyone has any input on that.
I'm not sure about the bump on your eye--that sounds quite odd!!
That eye thing sounds very strange and I would definitely get it checked out.

For the speck on your eye, I'm pretty sure it's called a subconjunctival hemorrhage. I think it's just a broken blood vessel.
I would read this short article: http://www.allaboutvision.com/conditions/hemorrhage.htm. It will probably explain it much better than I can.
I hope it helps!
No problem with swelling yet, I have those lovely pressure socks to keep the swelling down when I am out and walking a lot.
