feet swelling?

I am 36w 5d and usually my feet swell during the day but they go down at night. This morning I could barely put my shoes on and I have a pounding headache. The baby is moving alot. Anyone else had this happen?

I checked my blood pressure today as I and my hubby work on an ambulance and it is on the lower end of normal. And I always pee protein due to my gastric bypass and the high amount of protein I have to consume to maintain muscle. They haven't gotten any bigger then last night but they sure haven't went down like they normally do either.  I bet I am short on water. I didn't even think of that. Thanks y'all.

They say salt makes your feet swell up real bad, if you do have a lot of sodium in your diet i would try cutting it down n drink more water..
