DVT or just normal leg aches

Im 33wks and very obese, so have a massive belly. For the past couple of weeks I have had pain in my legs, mainly centered around my knees but occasionally up in my groin. It is much worse at night and really stops me from sleeping. The pain is a dull ache. Sometimes one leg is worse than the other. Im paranoid that it could be DVT but could it just be normal pains due to the extra weight on my legs, pushing on nerves, etc?

I think dvt is usually cramps in the calf’s? At 33weeks your baby may be settling down and pushing on nerves and there is a lot of extra weight to carry, my feet swelled up so bad in the summer just before I had my baby and my legs ached after walking

Call your maternity triage. Don't ask on here. This is your life and your baby's life. Just ring them to ask, they won't mind.
