It can be somewhat normal but depends. It can be a key indicator of preeclampsia. Also you need to make sure you are getting plenty of protein and drinking lots of water more than 64 oz a day.

Ugh.  Feet swelling was something I have battled.  Feet up when resting.  Limiting salt.   keeping blood pressure under check.  But it is rough. My feet definitely swelled.  I wore crocks with socks at the end of my first pregnancy in Dec. So attractive!

And here is the bad news, bones relax due to hormonal changes in pregnancy.  This is so you can get the baby out.  BUT, feet don't shrink back.  I was a perfect seven prior to having kids.  Now?  I'm an 8!!  I had to give away all of my cute size 7 shoes!  That bummed me out!!
