So uncomfortable already

I'm currently 21 weeks and 3 days. Is anybody else already really uncomfortable all the time. Last night I went to watch a band and I was sat on the chair and my back was really aching after an hour or so. Then when we got up to leave I had a horrible stitch type pain all down one side that was making it hard to walk so i waddled home. Then I got in bed and just could not get comfortable whatever I did. Both my arms ache and get pins and needles when I lie on my side and iv been awake all night just tossing and turning. And whenever i started to drift off my nose seems to be congested at night and id do a massive snort and wake myself up🤣 This is my 2nd pregnancy and I really don't remember being this uncomfortable so early on in my.last one! I'm just wondering if anybody else is already feeling like this as I don't know how to keep doing this for another 19 weeks! I'm exhausted with a toddler to look after aswell😴

My body hurts, really congested and have been for months now, shoulders hurt from sleeping on side. Breathless even when sitting down. I'm pregnant with twins so making this pregnancy alot harder on my body than my other 5. I was hoping after weeks and weeks of being bed/couch bound due to sickness I'd have a good 7/10 weeks of feeling me again before struggling in the last trimester but not happening 🤣

@Georgia oh wow. I can't even imagine how hard twins are on your body.. my body can't even cope with one 🤣 my 1st was a boy and that pregnancy was a breeze compared to this one. So I'm blaming it on the fact it's a girl this time with no science behind it 🤣 I hope you get some kind of break of feeling yourself for at least a few weeks. Take care of yourself 🙂 x

Probably my age factoring into it aswel 🤣 but I'm blaming the twins ha. I hope you get a bit of a break from the aches and pains aswel. Pregnancy can be a tough ride but we just have to make the most of it. I think we hardly sleep during pregnancy to get us prepared for the sleepless nights ahead. X

Yup haha I move as if I was huge. I do feel huge though! Nights and getting comfortable can be tricky and I too have the stupid congested nose, especially at night.

I feel exactly the same, I feel bigger than what I am and my body is really feeling it at the moment which is making me nervous for how I’m going to be in the third trimester😅🤣 I’m very congested too! Xx

Same here too!! 2nd pregnancy and I've had enough 🤣 my 1st was a boy and i didn’t feel like this until like 30 weeks!
But definitely not a gender a thing as I’m having another boy and he is causing me grief haha 😆
