Very swollen feet

Hey,

I'm 37+4 weeks pregnant ftm and I have the worst swollen feet! I've never had swollen feet before and other than a little mild swelling on my fingers I've generally not had much swelling

They've suddenly ballooned over the last hour?! Nothing else has swelled up, is this normal?!

They're literally massive, I can't move my toes and my ankles are nonexistent. I've been in work but I sit a desk and I make sure I have loose shoes and I walk regularly

I'm usually a size 4 with really tiny ankles but they loom gigantic and it hurts to stand up.

I'm currently reclining with my feet elevated.

Anyone have any ideas on what to do?

Agree with PP, get in touch with midwife or triage ASAP that needs to be checked particularly because it's come on so suddenly.
