38+4 with incredibly painful foot

[Sunshinecurl]

Has anyone else experienced this or have any advice? My left foot feels, quite literally, as if a load of bricks has been dropped on it. I can barely walk and cannot bend or flex it. I had a similar pain to this months ago when I started to be affected with water retention (but without anything like the intensity of pain) but this is on a different scale.

I've had this in one foot, am 36+3, i put it down to the ligaments softening in my foot. i did gain a shoe size when pregnant last time. sorry your in pain.

I'd phone the midwives tonight for advice. The chances are that it is nothing, but they will be the best people to advise.
