Just be sure to lift you legs up once a day for a while. Also wear good socks.  If standing allot be sure to sit for a few minutes everyhour.

Swelling is a part of pregnancy so no hon. You can lay down and elevate your feet however which helps lower swelling. I personally do that and put damp cold wash clothes on my feet.
