Aching limbs?!

Does anyone else get the burning sensation in their legs when they walk? It’s like when you’ve run for ten minutes and your legs start to burn, but I get it after walking just upstairs!! I also get it in my arms if I lift anything heavy, and my bump/back when I’ve been standing for ages. Anyone else? What causes this?

My legs constantly ache but I'm on my feet all day at work so i think this could be the reason for me. Could be the extra fluid you are carrying causing your joints to ache? Speak to midwife about it if you are worried

Physio told me it's Pelvic Girdle Pain, I've got the leg pain like I've been bloody weight lifting every night in my sleep.

I’m a nurse so I’m on my feet all the time too. But the pains are muscular - they feel just like when you’ve been running or exercising and start to feel the burn!
I have a midwife appt next week so I will ask her. It’s not anything urgent.. just wondered if anyone else had the same. In fact this was one of my earliest pregnancy symptoms and has only gotten worse!
