Brief Answer:
Can be due to pregnancy.

Detailed Answer:
Hello,
Thanks for trusting us with your health concern.

At 33 weeks of pregnancy, the swelling of the legs can be due to fluid accumulation in the legs due to venous stasis or an increase in blood pressure. This needs a proper evaluation by your gynecologist including a urine test to find out the cause. Till then it is best to keep a pillow under your legs while resting.

The feeling of vomiting can be due to pregnancy or due to dietary changes. It can be well controlled with the help of medicines. . You can take Sinate - OD (Doxylamine succinate) tablet, this is needed just once a day, early in the morning, it will help your nausea. For severe acidity you can take Pantop - D (PANTOPRAZOLE/DOMPERIDONE) tablet twice a day in empty stomach after consulting your gynecologist.

Please feel free to discuss further. I will be glad to answer the follow up queries that you have.
Wishing you good health.

Regards.
Dr. Rakhi Tayal.
