VERY sore joints at 31 weeks - has anyone experienced this? is there something wrong?

Not sure if this is normal, or if i am overreacting over nothing, but over the last week or so, most of my joints (but not all) have become very sore and swollen. My hands are particularly bad and bent as though i am an old lady (a great look!) but more importantly, they HURT! Lots. it hurts to squeeze toothpaste out...
my knees and shoulders are so sore that it wakes me in the night and in the day i can't use them properly.
has anyone else experienced this? should i ring mid wife/GP or is this just normal pregnancy aches and pains...?

Doesn't sound normal to me
You should call your midwife

thanks PFNM. i think you are right. i haven't been able to find anything about it in any books or online searches. i guess i just needed reassurance that i wasn't being dumb to be concerned.

i'll get onto the midwife asap!

I LOVE your name BTW. It's how i'm starting to feel - particularly after a sneezing fit earlier today - tena lady here i come
