Can anyone tell me what this ache is about?

Hi wise ones,

I am 12 + 5 weeks pregnant. Have had our 12 week scan a couple days ago and all was perfect, thank goodness.

Since the last week or so I seem to be getting achey lower back, thighs, waist, hips. A general achy ness, relieved by massage or baths and then back next day. Almost like a day before a period. A general sense back, thigh, leg, hip aching. Like I need a loooooong stretch and massage. Nothing specific, or immense, just ache. Am I making myself sound clear?

Any ideas? Thanks in advance.

I get very achy too, I think it's just where everything is stretching and moving around. I find my hot water bottle and baths help. I think it'll ease it a bit as everything moves around.

You get your first surge of relaxin at around 13 weeks according to my physio so it's probably just that meaning everything is loosening up. If you're worried, ask for a referral to a physio now and they'll be able to check you over and give you exercises to strengthen everything as they get looser
