Oh dear - I'm dreading the varicose veins....do all women get them??

I'm 18wks+3 and thankfully my body hasn't fallen apart yet Smile

If it makes u feel any better I am 16+3 and since 14 weeks the sciatica and heartburn has kicked in :( wish I was one of those that bloomed!

Im expecting dc6. Almost 27 weeks. No varicose veins. Fanjo...well lets put it like this ive been doing pelvic floor exercises for 24 years.

Im old & knackered though!

If you have a sore fanjo - do look in to a support belt. My SPD started at 14 weeks this time, and getting a proper belt early on really helped. It did get worse up to 28 weeks but after a week on holiday doing nothing and resting much more since, have found the pains are getting much less.

I am so much more tied this time than with Ds though - stopping work this week at 33+3 as I'm shattered when I got to 38 last time.
