This is dc3 and I'm fairly laidback about the general aches and pains, ligament stuff, all of that.
My bump is huge compared to previous pregnancies but mainly consists of pies and chocolate. Midwife has checked and says the uterus measures about right. She listened to the heartbeat last week because I haven't felt any movement at all (unlike in previous pregnancies where I felt movement at around 18 weeks or before). I've been quite tired and breathless really easily (1 flight of stairs and I can't speak without pausing to just catch my breath). Am blaming lack of sleep and my advancing years 
For the last couple of weeks, I sometimes feel incredibly uncomfortable. My bump can feel hard and sore - can this be Braxton Hicks? Not had them so early before. I can't get comfortable at all, in any position.
I'm not sure why I'm posting, I suppose I just want a moan and some sympathy as I'm really finding this hard work. If anyone had any suggestions on the uncomfortable bump, that would be great. Especially if that suggestion was to go on a holiday somewhere quiet where I wouldn't need to lift a finger and could sleep as much as I wanted to for a week
