Should I Consult A Doctor As I Am Having Swelling In My Face, Fatigue And Pins And Needles Feeling During My Pregnancy Period?

Hello, I am 24 year old female, just found out I am about 6-7 weeks pregnant. I've been experiencing fatigue and depression, but more startlingly abnormal is the pins and needles feeling that started today. Its gone on for several hours now, and seems to radiate from my right side between my hip and ribs. Its uncomfortable and disorienting, and I'm wondering if it is a signal of a problem with the pregnancy? I also have been waking up to find my face very swollen in the mornings. Do I need to seek care urgently?

Hi. yes, you should consult a dr.Also get urine routine ex. to know the cause of swelling on face. Take non spicy, small and frequent meal to avoid avoid that pricky feeling . You need to get your basic investigations done like CBC, RBS, URINE,etc. and a embryonic development scan. These changes may be due to hormonal changes in pregnancy.
Thanks.
