Honestly feel like I am geriatric some days! I have never been the most flexible, but with the baby I am sitting a lot less than I used to in my desk job. So I don't understand why I just ache all the time. My shoulders and back are the main culprits, but my quads and hip flexors are also bad. I know I probably need to start a stretching routine, it's just another thing to squeeze into nap times and never feels quite important enough!
Anyway wondering if anyone else is experiencing this? Or is a physio or PT and can give me some advice or accountability!

I feel the same. I googled it and apparently it’s hormones.
I feel stiff and just ache x

I felt this the first time and a chiropractor really helped. Its hormone related normally x

We had our 20 week scan (21 weeks pregnant) they explained that during the scan they saw a low lying placenta. I’m worried that I might be forced to have a section and we have been advised to avoid sex? We haven’t been very intimate for the last few weeks due to being uncomfortable and a lower sex drive than before however our next scan is November and trying to figure it out?!

Hi, I’m 24 weeks pregnant with my 3rd baby, my pgp is actually insane. It was always bad with my other two but at around 28-30 weeks. It started around 20 weeks, did anyone else experience it this early? And any recommendations?

I’m 36 weeks and CONSTANTLY constipated. I’ve literally tried everything and I can not poop to save my life. My stomach hurts soooo bad. I feel like I’m going to shit myself but then I try to use the bathroom and I’m so backed up that I can’t. Now my freaking butthole feels like it’s turned inside out and there’s so much pressure from my hemorrhoid. I’m so over this 😭 I just want to feel normal again man. I love my babies but I absolutely hate being pregnant. I’m so miserable 😭

Okay so maybe tmi but my period has NEVER been regular in my life I am normally 42 day cycle. My last period was June 12 so based off that and getting pregnant during my ovulation window my obgyn guessed originally I’d be due March 19… we had our first ultrasound and the tech said I was actually due April 5… has anyone ever had a 3 week difference I am kinda over thinking this and worried about baby
