Joint issues at 17 weeks?

I know its common to have ankle pain later on in pregnancy, but I wasn't expecting it this early. I put extra strain on my ankles by going rock climbing last night and was literally limpeing afterwards and had to ice my ankles. I already had tendinitis in one ankle so I know that's flaring now. But I still have discomfort when on my feet and it's been 24 hours. Has anyone else dealt with this issue so early on?

I’m having a lot of joint issues and nerve issues already and it started at 9 weeks. So that was insane. I have issues and pains normally before pregnancy but having a flare up so early I think it’s just gonna get worse. I’m now 17 weeks

It's hard to know where my chronic condition ends and normal pregnancy discomfort begins. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia so yes I've felt this way but I couldn't tell you which was responsible. As your body produces more relaxin to prepare for giving birth you'll definitely feel things shift. I'm at 16 weeks and my hips and legs click in and out of place constantly if I move in certain ways. I don't know which is the right way anymore 😮‍💨 but I'll get through it like everything else.

Sounds like your body is needing more rest through this short season of life, surely you'll be back on your feet and at a new normal hopefully near where you were before pregnancy, as your body recovers after.

Reduced Movements

Has anyone else gone in for monitoring for reduced movements and as soon as you arrive at triage the baby starts moving and the CTG is normal? It makes me feel like I am over reacting.

Labour

Think im a bit confused really, i went into traige as was having contractions eveey 3-5mins. Since being here im now having them every 2-3mins which was confirmed with the machine and i think the toco was 90-100 and they feel painful and my lower back is in loads of pain but apparently im only just over 2cm dilated maybe, she has said i can stay here for a bit longer to see if things progress as had a previous quick birth as well but i dont understand why the pains are coming this quick if im only 2cm dilated and feel a bit deflated from it also.

I had a sweep this morning also.

Pregnancy after c section

What time scale did everyone get pregnant again after a c section?
I know the doc said they recommend eating at least a year to 18 months but it took 4 years to get pregnant the first time after being told we could not conceive naturally so not wanting to stop it happening knowing it could take a very long time again but also worried.

Hospital bag (UK)

What did everyone pack for their section? I'm staying in for 3 days due to mental health, not really sure what I'll need to bring, feeling very nervous. Any help would be appreciated. Thank you!
