Talk to me about ligament/stretching pains.

[FranksBobot]

Currently 13+6, third pregnancy (1 dc, 1 mmc at 7 weeks) I can't actually remember having many aches and pains with dd but she is 8 now.
On school run this afternoon I was in agony walking. Hips and middle bottom of bump feel like they are on fire. I lay down for 20 mins when I got home and they passed. Just walked down stairs to make a cuppa and they are back with added back ache! My belly does seem to have expanded rather quickly in last few days.
Normal at this stage or not? Surely it's early for major aches and pains?

Is it maybe pelvic pain? I got it very early on and still getting it now (32 weeks). If it continues ask your mw. I got referred to physio for it and I'm also doing aqua natal classes which are so relaxing! :-) x

I have no idea what it is. I had to stop walking and catch my breath quite a few times on the way home. It's not a long walk. Takes 10 minutes at a nice easy pace normally. Hoping once I've sat down for the evening it will calm down.

im 16+ weeks and still have them :'( very very painful and put me in a bad mood!
my Dr. said these are normal expansion pains they will even increase with time. gulp
every pregnancy is different and everyone experiences different symptoms and has different experiences...
all the best to you :-)

Thanks Sara sorry to hear you are in pain too but it is reassuring that I'm not alone.
