kankles - any advice?

[RachelParker]

I'm now 32 weeks pregnant and over the last week my feet and ankles have become really swollen - is there any way to stop the swelling?

drinking loads and loads of water and lying down alot. sorry not much help, 35+5 here and have been suffering for the last 6 weeks with this. was even worse the other week when we had those v v hot few days, felt like my feet were going to burst open they felt so tight and swollen, even develop creases by my toes where the skin is so stretched!

oh try to avoid socks to, even trainer socks are cutting in now, so I try to get by with just crocs or flipflops.

All the websites suggest support socks, like the ones your meant to wear on an airplane but I'm not sure whether they'd be uncomfy or not.
