[6] Maternal mortality due to eclampsia occurs at a rate of approximately 0–1.8% of cases in high-income countries and up to 15% of cases in low- to middle- income countries. [15]
This increase in size and weight of the uterus puts stress on the ligament that holds it, causing it to stretch. During physical exertion or sudden movements, the ligament is overly stretched, causing pain. Varicosities, [7] e.g. enlargement of the blood vessels of the round ligament can occur during pregnancy, causing pain and swelling. The ...

The leg becomes more swollen and increasingly more painful.

[21] The legs are primarily affected, with 4–10% of DVT occurring in the arms. [11] Despite the signs and symptoms being highly variable, [5] the typical symptoms are pain, swelling, and redness.
Symptoms include one or more of the following: pain in the pubic area, hips, lower back, and thighs. This can take months (or even years) to go away. X-rays taken during the early stages of osteitis pubis can be misleading - pain may be felt, but the damage doesn't appear on the films unless stork views (i.e. standing on one leg) are obtained.
