To the reader that asked about water retention, I developed preeclampsia with my last pregnancy and had terrible water retention,the one thing that really worked was parsley!

I mixed a handful of fresh parsley in a blender with apple juice(or any other juice) and drank 1-2 times daily. I also sprinkled my food with chopped, fresh parsley. It worked wonders!

Drink Concord Grape juice. This really helped me when I had swollen ankles when I was pregnant. Also, try to keep your feet above waist level as much as possible during the day.
