Swollen ankles!

Hi ladies. I am 21 weeks 3 days. I have been dealing with puffy ankles since I first found out I was expecting. What can I do besides drink water?

I've tryed everything too keep my ankles and feet down , and nothing .. I've tryed elevation, drinking  water, compress, and still nothing :( but my legs ankles and feet just became real swollen like 3 days ago :/ so I'm just guessing it's water weight and I'll loss it when I give birth
