Swollen feet at 32 weeks

Elizabeth
My feet, previously a size 8.5, are so swollen that I can't wear any of my shoes. Thankfully the weather has warned up a bit and I can squeeze my feet into some flip flops. But, I had to buy a new pair of sneakers in a size 9.5 for some lower back support. 
I read an article this morning about kinesio taping to relieve pressure and was wondering if any of you had tried that with any luck. My doctor also said that the baby has already started to shift lower and that I should look into a maternity belt for support. I was hoping that the two were related and that I could use the tape instead of the bulky belt. But, at this point, I'll take relief in any form. Thanks in advance!
