Inflate-a-feet...

[Surprised26]

So since Sunday (36w0d) my feet have been swelling like crazy when I do ANYTHING. Seriously, today my activities included sitting in a chair stirring together the ingredients for Christmas baked goods, and they've still swollen to the point where I have a line (fat roll?) under my toes on the top of my foot and Cankles. On Sunday, when it first happened, I'd been on my feet a lot and was swollen from my toes clear up to my thighs, but by Monday morning they were back to normal...However, today I've spent the majority of the evening chugging water with my legs propped up higher than my head and it's only gone down a tiny bit. I had my 36 week appointment yesterday and since my blood pressure is fine, my ob isn't concerned....but that doesn't make me any less miserable. Anyone have any remedies??

Compression socks. The kind diabetics wear. I've had horrifying swelling since 14 weeks and they're the only things that keep my feet from feeling like they'll split open.
