Q. I am 4 weeks Pregnant And Was Wondering Is It Okay To Eat Spicy Foods Like Buffalo Wings And Tabasco Sauce During Pregnancy???

Answer
It may give you heart burns, but nothing more ;)
I'm 36 weeks pregnant and intend on eating exactly that tomorrow for my birthday diner! :P

is high blood pressure and swelling safe during 36th week of pregnancy?

i have a dr appt tomorrow and i'm curious if i have preclampsia (my sister has had it 3 times) but i did not have it my first time pregnant. last check up (2 weeks ago) i had high blood pressure and my dr just said to slow down. i run a home daycare with a total of 4 toddlers--really not that big of a deal--but i am on my feet mostly and i do almost all of the house cleaning as if i weren't pregnant at all. my ankles and calves are very swollen and all day today, my hands have been swollen to the point i cannot close them without slight pain. i'm having a planned csection anyway, just wondered if there's any home remedies other than taking breaks, elevating feet and hands to reduce swelling and stuff. i'll find out tomorrow what to do for sure i guess.

Answer
Good luck to you! You sound worse than I did at 37 weeks. All I had was high blood pressure, no swelling. Went in for a no stress test and stayed until the baby came. They induced me of course, but I was in there for like 5 days total. They didn't even let me leave to get my things. Just be prepared if they don't let you leave.
Resting is good, even standing or walking can raise blood pressure. Let someone else do the house work until baby comes and try to limit the number of kids you have or have someone help you. Watch your sodium intake as well, they hide that stuff in all foods you buy.
