These physical changes are in the form of increased hormones which can also affect a person's mood, back pain, leg cramps or tingling, and swollen feet that often occur at night and interfere with the quality of sleep of pregnant women. The purpose of this activity is to provide knowledge to pregnant women about edema and anxiety in the 3rd trimester and complementary therapies that can be done.
