Just can't get comfortable

[Iloveonionchutney]

I'm only 22 weeks, this is going to be a long summer
If I'm standing my hip feels like it's going to give way as if there's pressure on a nerve, my back is aching all the time and when I sit down I can't get back up again! It wasn't like this the first time round.
Sorry about the moan but was looking forward to a nice evening cuddled up with dh and I can't keep still.

Speak to your midwife. I remember that feeling well (sympathy coming your way) take care, take it easy when possible....& get a fan!!

I had that about 23/24 wks but it seems to have subsided now (29 wks). I went to a group antenatal physio session that they offer here (Leeds) and there were some really useful tips for getting comfy & sitting posture etc - ask your MW if they do that where you are. Swimming has helped me too. Hope things get better for you.

I had that in early 20's weeks, 29 weeks now. I found sleeping with a pillow under my bump and another between my thighs got me lined up properly so that I didn't hurt in the day...even better since I found a Dreamgenie pillow heavily discounted in tkmaxx!

It's not fun though :( hope you feel better x

I think I'll ask about physio, I suffered with my hips before the pregnancy too so may well help. I love a soak in the bath but trying to get out isn't much fun lol.
I used pillows a lot last time towards the end, I really fancy a v shaped pillow, might have to treat myself! Poor dh is sleeping in the spare room all the time as I'm fidgeting too much for him!

Go swimming I was in my local pool nearly every day of my last trimester the pool was nice and cool as well and I was due in sept to heavily pg all summer

Aldi got v shaped pillows for six quid at the moment

I'm 24 weeks and am suffering from constant back pain too :( I'm also very restless at night. I did go to see a physio who helped with posture etc but she did say it's just one of those things! My midwife did say between 20-26 weeks you do go through quite a growth spurt though so I'm hoping I haven't got this for another 3 months!

Sympathy to you. I feel the same. I'm expecting dc2 and cant remember being this uncomfortable the first time round. I literally cant bend the slightest bit and getting out of bed for a pee during the night is an absolute nightmare xx

Oh weelamb that sounds really bad, have you asked about spd, you sound much worse than me?
