im 25 weeks and just feeling really uncomfortable ALL the time. having a desk job does no good with a bad bad a squashed belly. and trying to get comfy on the sofa or in bed is a nightmare! anyone feeling the same or got any tips for feeling more comfortable? Sad

I'm 31 weeks and don't remember what it's like to feel comfortable. I don't remember this from my first pregnancy!
I did have a pregnancy massage today which was amazing, it's not a cure all but I definitely feel more relaxed.

I'm 25 weeks too (25+4) with twins and just same! Sitting down is the worst position which makes my desk job so painful. When are you due to finish for ML? I know how you feel! I dread bed time, i can't get comfy and everything just hurts. All the bloody time! I know it will totally be worth it but ouch!!

35 weeks and cannot wait to have my stomach back lol.

It's baby number 3, babies 1 and 2 were late, hoping number 3 will appear early Grin

My due date is 10 Feb too! Although it will be sooner at 36/37 weeks if all goes to plan. Cos I'm struggling so much already and we have a few complications with one twin n the fact that my back has about finished me off already, I finish on 2nd December. 4 weeks, 3 days and counting! My GP says she is more than happy to sign me off now but I'm training my replacement so daren't actually take the leave now although I really want to. It seems like such a long way off but it really isn't! Have you tried a pregnancy support belt if you are struggling with your back? My friend lent me hers and it does help if you're stood up for a while but unfortunately doesn't help me when sitting.
