Had it on and off from 20 weeks x

has the midwife said what it could possibly be? My 2nd pregnancy and I’m just scared I’m going to go into early labour as sometimes I feel like it’s going to break my waters 😂🫣 xx

I’ve had it over the last few weeks a couple times and I’m 32 weeks x

I had this with both babies throughout my third trimesters. Just my babies bouncing on a pelvic nerve and making my knees buckle like my fanny touched a live wire 🤦🏼♀️

😂😂😂 honestly that’s how it feels, I hold it like everything’s going to fall out xx

I was walking down my high street 36 weeks pregnant with my first baby and it hit me like a brick wall. I actually yelped for the first time and stood like I was stuck on the spot. My husband thought I’d broke my waters or something. I literally couldn’t move for the spasms and my knees hurt. Little bugger! It’s normal but there’s no way to stop it, it’s your nervous system. I found bouncing on a ball when watching tv at night helped though xx

Yess been getting it all the time since 27 weeks!! 😵💫

Yeah I had this twice at about 28ish weeks! Literally got in the door at Tesco and thought wtf is going on 🤣⚡️

I didn’t question it. It’s my first baby so assumed it was normal. :/ I’m 39 weeks now, all good!

it is normal, it’s just the baby sitting on a nerve or moving etc! Not everyone experiences it, I didn’t with my first child but have this time. It’s nothing to be concerned about ☺️
