Swollen Feet

Has anyone experienced swollen feet/ankles to the point of them itching and hurting?  I am 35 weeks and for the past 2 weeks my feet have began to swell.  Lately they are sore and itch.  My blood pressure is fine and I'm not having any pre-eclampsia symptoms.  Just wanting to know if there is any remedy other than the regular elevating of the feet.

I AM ALMOST 34 WEEKS AND I AM HAVING SWELLING.  LAST WEEK IT WAS JUST FROM THE BALLS OF MY FEET THRU MY TOES.  IT IS UNCOMFORTABLE AND WHEN I WAKE UP IT FEELS LIKE I WORE HEALS THE NIGHT BEFORE AND MY FEET ARE KILLING ME.  THEN YESTERDAY I WAS ON MY FEET ALL DAY (WAS MY BABY SHOWER) AND I NO LONGER HAD ANKLES.  I WAS SOOO SWOLLEN.  I GOT OFF MY FEET FOR ABOUT AN HOUR AND THEY WENT DOWN.  I HAVE BEEN HAVING THEM RUBBED BY MY MOM OR MY HUSBAND FOR THE LAST THREE NIGHTS AND IT HAS BEEN GREAT.  I DON'T HAVE ANY REMEDIES EXCEPT GET OFF THEM LOL.  OHHH NOT TOO MUCH LONGER TO GO.  GOOD LUCK TO YA.

thanks to both of you.  I did notice that when my mother in law touched my feet with her cold hands (she had been holding a soda) It felt great!  Then that night my husband rubbed them and that was great too.  Hmmm if there was anyway to cobine to two....
