Could have a heel spur! (Plantar Fasciitis). That can be really sore and can come on at any time. Best thing to do is rest it. You would want to see your Dr though and perhaps see if you're okay to wear a tubi-grip.

I have one so know it can be bad, however, since I stopped running, I've had no pain from it at all. I thought it would have gotten worse through not exercising.

Saying that, it could just be pressure from extra weight you're carrying in pregnancy and that your shoes aren't good enough to support you at the moment.

you could have a heel spur which is incredibly painful.....

or because of the extra weight you're carrying there is a chance you could have a corn/callous which can also be very painful too and needs to be seen by a chiropodist to remove it.

Hope you feel better soon x

Oh, Manda... try a cold compress on the bottom of your foot. it might help!

stretched ligament maybe, doesn't sound pregnancy related

you can get a gel heel pad from the chemist...it'll just take some pressure off the area and might help with walking x
