Sooooooo I'm only 25 weeks (26 wks on Sunday) and I've started to waddle! My lower back is starting to hurt a little and I feel like I'm going to pop! My belly is so tight! I think lil man is having a growth spurt!
Slightly concerned given I still have 14 weeks left and what I'm going to be like later on! 😫
Please tell me I'm know the only one at this stage who feels like this!

29 weeks and I'm mega waddling! Goodness knows what I'll be like in 10 weeks time. My hips are buggered, my back hurts and I'm so slow 😂 It's not comfortable - you're not alone!

Oh bless you @mrs87 😭
Honestly I feel MASSIVE!!
I've put a lot of weight on already and it's mostly all bump weight which is why I think I've started waddling because of the size of it!
I've done so well up until now and I have a funny feeling my third trimester is going to be a nightmare for my mobility!
God help us eh! 😫

I've put on far too much weight, I was blissfully ignorant/in denial until I was weighed at my midwife appointment this week... I blame lockdown!

I've had a really easy 1st and 2nd trimesters too, so I reckon the 3rd is gonna be the killer! Fingers crossed your bump doesn't get too much bigger and cause further problems for you - really hope you have a smooth final trimester xx

I don't think I've started to waddle yet but I've found lying on the floor (it's tiled) does wonders for my back, until I have to get up and I look like a turtle.. 6 weeks to go 🥰

But in all seriousness, when I go flat on my back on a hard surface I feel like my coccyx wants to split in two

@Babyshine2020 I've got no chance lying in the floor I wouldn't get back up! 😂
I cannot lie on my back anymore it does not feel good at all! 😬
My baby boy doesn't like me lying in my right side either! He throws a paddy and kicks the crap out of me 😂
Left side only for me and it just show happens I currently have a frozen left shoulder!
Oh the joys!
And thank you @mrs87 im hoping the rest of my pregnancy will be as easy as the first two but I think I may be delusional! 😝 hope yours is too! 🥰
