Hi, I'm 17 weeks pregnant with #4 and am finding it quite different already.
I started showing a few weeks ago and my bump feels huge and heavy already!
I've got a bit of pelvic pain but tbh I had that last time, if I am on my feet for a few hours straight I get a really achy bum and groin and have to sit down for ages before I feel better. In my last pg I noticed I had horrible varicose veins which started at my bum and went all the way down one leg (it looked like my leg was 30 yrs older) they did go away afterwards but I am worried as I can see them now at 17wks and I think they were nearer the 30wk mark last time.
Obviously it is going to be a bit harder on my body this time as I am older and have had 3 dcs in the last 7 yrs but I don't usually show until 20-25 wks.
Can anyone reassure me if this is normal and what if anything I can do? I am usually quite slim and do a lot of walking, my job involves being on my feet a lot so a bit worried about how the next few months might go.
