Swelling Feet

Ok.. I'm 35 weeks and my feet have swelled something terrible today!!! They are terrible. Is this something I should be worried about?? I know this is normal and all but this is the worse that I've seen my feet today!!! i will get up to go to the bathroom and come back and my feet are swollen something terrible.

lol firstcub, I was 9 months pregnant in the dead of Wisconsin winter with my son and I had to wear flip flops the whole time, I looked ridiculous but it was all that fit. We are very lucky it's summer!!

I've been restricted to a pair of flip flops for months! Thank gosh it's summer. I don't know what I would have done if my feet were this way in the winter!
Just watch out for your face. If it suddenly swells, see your doc. But feet and some minor swelling of the hands is normal and very common - unfortunately!

It's nothing to worry about, I look like I have elephantiasis of the feet. I cant even wear shoes anymore, flip flops are all I can fit into. Try and keep your sodium low and drink 12 glasses of water a day and elevate your feet as much as possible but at this point there isn't much that helps, especially with the warm weather.
