Bump ache?!
Is anyone else getting this - my bump feels sooo heavy and as if it’s aching, and I just want to hold it up!
I’ve been in work on my feet all day and it started around 2ish.
It’s not every day but even now at night when I get up I just want to lay down again
24 weeks, second baby, 5ft2 and around 70kg before I got pregnant.

Mine is more the weird feeling of feeling so stretched and my skin stretching, not so much an ache. Been getting terrible sciatica too and I'm only 21 weeks.
I get this when I’ve been on my feet a lot. Try and take regular breaks and maybe try a bump band? In my last pregnancy, someone told me about rebozo techniques where your partner can lift your bump up with a long scarf from behind and it just gives you a bit of relief, it was amazing in the third trimester! Feel like I might have to do it earlier on this time as I already feel so big! 😂 x
No experience but have you thought about getting a pregnancy support belt to relieve some of that heaviness?
Yeah I’ve just got a support band so going to try that

Yes!! Mine is aching so bad the past few days on and off. I’ve been taking paracetamol a couple of times a day which is helping
