Can’t walk

Please no judgement, I know this is going to sound ridiculous. It was my little boys first birthday party today and I’m 37 weeks pregnant with my first. We got the rounders kit out and I decided to give it a go and now I can’t walk from the pain in my pelvis. I’m fine when sitting down but unbearable pain when I try and move. Has anyone done exercise this late in pregnancy and suffered the same? PFA

You’ve probably overdone it a little bit. Painkillers to the rescue!

It’s not ridiculous and I doubt anyone here will be judging! Pregnancy is so crippling at times! I’m only 35+4 atm but had a lot of points this week that I’ve struggled to move with pains and I’ve seen other people say they’ve had pelvic girdle pain so bad they needed a wheelchair so you’re definitely not alone!

This is me today. Went for a walk when I suffer with pgp thought i was going an ok pace but literally crippled this evening. I find paracetemol and a warm bath help loads

I've overdone it a couple of times and been in agony! It does get better with a warm bath and a rest. X

Pregnancy support belt and doing hip flexor kneeling stretch for just two mins daily made me not be able to walk in third trimester to start doing 10k steps everyday

Period like cramps

Hi
I’m currently 33 weeks pregnant and I keep getting period like cramps I thought these were Brixton hicks but I’ve heard they only last 30 seconds ish as this can go on for a good time frame then go away and come back, they aren’t bad enough where I can’t do basic things they just feel like I’m about to get my period I’m jus wondering how normal this is? Baby is still very actively kicking xx

C section or natural?

I am a control freak and thinking c section is the least stressful route for me and baby… less complications during labour etc. whilst acknowledging recovering can be hard.
If it could be guaranteed no tearing or complications then I would opt for natural and kind of want to experience the feeling.
Then again could plan and go either way 😂 arghh!
Anyone else in this predicament?

Midwife check

Can someone remind me when the midwife visits you at home? Is it the day after you’re discharged? And is that the same on the weekend or do they not visit then? Thanks!

Owlet

Anyone else’s owlet pi##ing them off ?!?! It goes off 5/6 a night saying it can’t get a reading and needs a snug fit. My baby is 8 months old so moves a lot. It is driving me insane and I keep end up taking it off!!
