    Yes sharcerv I do feel that way every now and then. To me it almost feels like a baby kicking.

      So glad you posted this I thought I was crazy. Do you ever have a problem with retaining fluid in foot and leg?

      No, I don't get any leg swelling. But everyone is different with some of these symptoms.

      Thanks I have swelling just in one foot and leg. Back in may when I was diagnosed with having an underactive thyroid I mentioned to gp and I mentioned it again when going back for monthly blood work he didn't seemed concerned. It doesn't hurt etc.. Its just annoying I think I read once that hormonal imbalance can cause that.

      Yeah that fluid retention can show up in different places. For me, it's my belly. I'll look like I'm four months pregnant and then after my period...poof, it's gone.
