Literally feeling the >PRESSURE< on brainand belly!!!

I have no idea how I am possibly going to get through the next three months given how I am at the moment...

♥ My back and belly totally ache!!!
♥ I am utterly massive - no joke!!!
♥ AND THE PRESSURE I FEEL ON MY BELLY IS TOTALLY UNBELIEVABLE!!!

Is anyone else the same?
Is this normal?
Another 3 months but I already feel as if my belly is about to explode!!!
Does the belly pressure feeling last continuously from now right til the birth???

Can't help you on this but I'm ten weeks and the bloated feeling/indigestion is harder than all the other symptoms, feel your pain. I somehow have a feeling this feeling will only get worse as I expand. Your 2\3rds of the way there so hang in there..hope u feel better soon Flowers

I am not promising that this will happen to you but I felt better as I hit my final trimester than I did in either of the others - when I felt like shit!
As this is my first baby I think I had more pain from stretchy muscles from about 20 weeks but as I am now 33 weeks, although pretty huge I am in less pain - maybe all that stretching at first helped??

Are you sleeping with a cushion between your knees and under bump? I really found that helped. Also massaging the bump and my back with bio oil/moisturiser.
Hope you feel better soon

I'm 26 weeks tomorrow too, and have been suffering from agonising rib pain on the left hand side, I have been told this only improves in the last few weeks when the baby and uterus move down- great!!

My tummy feels very very tight- I also have a really big bump, how it's going to get any bigger I'm not quite sure.

You might be interested to have a read of my blog as we are close on dates.. www.bumpbabycandme.blogspot.co.uk

Don't worry, only 14 weeks to go! (hopefully)

I felt exactly the same. Turned out I had a bit of spd which a chiropractor really helped with. Have also had incredibly bad bloating - ginger tablets twice a day seem to be helping. felt better at 34 weeks than I did for the entire 10 before! am now 37 and fed up again however but at least the end is in sight now!
