After she raised eyebrows on Thursday as she crammed her swollen feet into Perspex heels, with painful looking results, Kim Kardashian finally seems to be giving her feet a much needed rest.

Kim Kardashian, 32, who up until now has only worn flats for trips to the gym, ditched the sky high shoes and slipped into some far more comfortable ballet pumps on Saturday.

The reality star was seen arriving at LAX airport in Los Angeles in the early hours of the morning alongside her mother Kris Jenner.

Kim Kardashian sported an all-black ensemble for her flight, which along with her flats consisted of trousers, a loose-fitting top and a long unbuttoned coat.

She went make-up free for the early morning outing but shielded her bare face with oversized aviator sunglasses, sweeping her brunette locks into a slick ponytail.

Kim Kardashian clutched a black tote and red carrier bag, while her mother and manager lugged a huge Louis Vuitton case around.

KrisJenner, 57, was also dressed down in black leggings tucked into matching leather boots, along with a white shirt and soft wool coat.

Along with her huge suitcase Kris Jenner carried a quilted black handbag and a houndstooth neck pillow to keep her comfortable during the flight.

Roger W. Harms, M.D., leading obstetrician at the Mayo Clinic, explains why women’s feet swell during pregnancy.

“Your body produces and retains more fluid during pregnancy,” he says.

“Also, your growing uterus puts pressure on your veins, which impairs return of blood to your heart. In turn, this can lead to swelling in the legs, ankles and feet. Hormonal changes might play a role as well.”

To avoid cankles, Dr. Roger W. Harms suggests a number of measures:

1.     Sleep on your left side:

This takes pressure off the inferior vena cava – the large vein that returns blood from the lower half of your body to your heart.

2.     Stand in water:

Standing in a pool can compress tissues in the legs and might provide temporary relief.

3.     Stay cool:

It might be soothing to apply cold-water compresses to swollen areas.

4.     Wear compression stockings:

Your midwife or GP might recommend wearing supportive tights or stockings.

5.     Drink plenty of fluids:

The Institute of Medicine recommends about two litres of fluids a day during pregnancy.

6.     Exercise:

Walking and swimming can alleviate swelling.

7.     Stay off your feet:

Avoid standing for long periods, and don’t cross your legs.

When you can, sit with your feet up and occasionally rotate your feet at the ankles.

Better still, lie down with your legs elevated.

Kim Kardashian tottered out in a pair of sky-high perspex high heels on Thursday after she complained that a pair of caged Givenchy heels had hurt her swollen feet just last week.

Heavily pregnant Kim Kardashian’s feet were so swollen that she barely managed to squeeze them into the footwear.

Puffy, her ankles were also clearly suffering, even appearing severely pinched in the stylish shoes.

But the 32-year-old reality star was keen to power on, strutting around while wearing another item of clothing that was very tight.

Kim Kardashian wore a clingy white shift dress for the afternoon outing.

The attire was a similar design to a black frock she had slipped into earlier this month to promote her clothing line in Dallas, Texas.

Kim Kardashian’s dress featured what appeared to be an attached matching white cape and of course, her stilettos.

The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star wore her hair out in a straight style and had her usual smoky eye and nude lip combination applied for make-up.

She was joined by her mother Kris Jenner, who beamed at her daughter as she surveyed her outfit.

Kim Kardashian was dressed-to-the-nines to film scenes for her reality TV show, Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

Kris Jenner, 57, was also wearing white in the form of a white blazer.

She paired the item with a Kardashian staple – a pair of leather trousers.

The reality matriarch and manager also got around in a pair of sky-high heels – hers a pair of suede ankle boots.

The mother-of-six also toted a patterned Givenchy handbag – the designer a favorite of the family.

Earlier this month, Kim Kardashian complained about her swollen feet when she tweeted a snap of them after wearing caged Givenchy boots all day.

Meanwhile recent reports claimed that Kanye West wouldn’t be around following the birth of their child in July because he is planning on embarking on a world tour later this year, following the release of his new album.

However, following claims that she would be left alone with a young baby, TMZ.com have now revealed that Kim Kardashian is planning on joining her beau on the road along with their child.

The website claims that the touring company has been asked to provide cribs and soundproof hotel rooms to provide the most comfortable accommodation for the couple and their baby throughout the tour.

However, Kim Kardashian is contractually obliged to remain in town over the winter for filming of her family reality show Keeping Up With The Kardashians.

“Kim just feels like she can’t win,” the source added.

“She feels that both of their work schedules are going to prevent them from spending quality time together after the baby is born.”
