One sided swelling? PIOG

This is a wierd symptom I've never had with any of my other pregnancies. Swollen feet with my daughter was just slightly annoying and to be expected since I was pregnant all summer long with her. I never had a problem with swelling at all with my son. Now with this one I'm having wierd swelling. Both of my feet/ankles swell (and even my calves/knees sometimes) if I'm up and walking or doing too much. The wierd thing is that my right foot/ankle swells more than my left and it even swells up when I haven't been up doing anything. I could lay on the couch all day and at the end of the day my right foot will be huge and hurting when I walk on it. Has anyone ever had anything like this? I'm going to ask my midwife about it thursday but I thought I'd see if any of you ladies had any ideas or suggestions first. Oh and yes I am keeping myself hydrated and dont have a uti that I'm aware of, I drink all the time and pee all the time lol.
