My daughter is 23 week pregnant and had to have a kidney stent placed 3 days ago. Her uvula is very swollen and elongated from being incubated. She said it feels like sandpaper. She is drinking better, eating soft foods. The pain is improving a little. I just spoke with her on the phone and she sounds raspy or skweeky when she breaths. This mom is starting to worry! Anything else she should be doing?
