Swimming definately helps keep my swelling down, I've been having Reflexology which really helps too. Drink plenty of water and Nettle Leaf tea is good for supporting our hard working kidneys. My reflexologist told me to try and circle and flex my feet/ankles for about 10mins morning & eve, it doesn't do wonders but I think it helps a little.
Good luck

I swore by wearing graduated-compression pantyhose with DD. With greater pressure at your feet/ankles, and less at the top, it really helped keep the fluid from accumulating.
The brand I wore has been discontinued, but No Nonsense has some out with some that I plan on trying.

Oh, I just remembered. If you try them, put them on FIRST THING in the morning. With medical support hose, you're supposed to put them on before you even stand up. I couldn't quite manage that feat while pregnant, though!
