U can ask ur mil or hub to gentle rub/massage ur legs. Im due any day soon and i had swollen big feet that i cant walk much at 36weeks. So my mum actually rub with oil. Not massage on the sole ya ! Only the top part of ur feet. I could walk 10 mins after the massage and my feet instantly shrunk to normal size.

Any idea why ur MIL doesn't approve? Actually massage does help but only temporarily. Compression stockings might help. Drink more water, avoid salty food, elevate legs.

I have a warm bathe and it does help, then I just sleep more and place a pillow below my leg

Can massage gently . Do put a pillow under your legs when you go to bed take care!

Elevate your legs when you are lying down, drink more water and walk more..

Put a pillow under your leg or get your hubby to massage

Why not I did a lot of massage when I was pregnant

Try soak In lukewarm water ?

Go for pre natal massage
