I used cabbage leaves and Epsom salt baths. Prob good to check in with your doc to make sure these would work for you, though.

Soak your feet in baking soda, salt &water, don’t avoid completely salt, sea salt is good in pregnancy, follow brewers diet

Increased water intake. Sodium binds with water when you pee thus helping with swelling.
