I'd say call your doctor or midwife and discuss how you're feeling before making a decision about continuing the walks (but perhaps hold off on walking till you get his or her advice). It is probably something like poor circulation and no cause for alarm, but it never hurts to be cautious. Good luck! Do you find this valuable?
