I had this soooo bad during my 1st pregnancy. I remember feeling so tight!
Less salt More water More relaxing!

Re: 36wks and 5 days...
The same thing happened with me with my first pregnancy around 37 weeks. It was awful. I just drank lots of water and kept my feet up as much as possible.
I'm starting to swell now with my second and I'm 36 weeks as well, but only at night after a long day. I'm sure it's just going to get worse.
Welcome to the 9th month!!! I hope you find some relief and feel better soon!!

Try to wear open toe shoes and no knee highs/pantyhose if you can avoid it. Also try to keep your feet elevated when you're at work. I found all of these plus drinking lots of water to be very helpful.
