How far along were you when you actually felt uncomfortable with pregnancy? So much that it stopped you from staying active and doing your normal things

With my first I didn’t feel uncomfortable really. My bump was quite small and I didn’t really get aches and pains. I felt fine right to the end. My second was a different story. By 6 months I didn’t know how I would get through the last 3 months of it. I had SPD and I was also huge and uncomfortable.

About 33 weeks I started too feel uncomfortable. But my 4th pregnancy she was head down and low quite early.

Dc1 ( singleton) felt great until 40 weeks ( born at 41.5) DC 2/3 ( twins) pretty much bedridden from 28 weeks 😭

Going to echo most people, though admittedly I've never made it to my due date.

First pregnancy (37+1) I never did feel uncomfortable. I could easily sit on the floor and get up by myself. No issues putting shoes on. No aches or pains etc.

Second pregnancy (37+6) felt like it was from conception. Fatigue like I've never known before. Joint pain, back pain. Difficulty walking waddling. Heart burn, indigestion. A baby with a serious beef against my lower right ribs.

With my first, around 33/32 weeks
second.. I haven’t felt comfortable at all. 24 weeks and feel like I’m 34 weeks 🥵

Around the 30 week mark. My Ds was born in September and I struggled even more so having the last few months through the summer, the heat seemed to make everything much harder. I had a January baby also which was slightly easier as the final months were through winter. Or of course it could have just been different pregnancies.

About 38/39 weeks with both. Although I did stop cycling at 20/24 weeks.

Only the last week or so. However my daughter was born in March so I didn’t have summer heat to contend with

1st... Even with SPD and being on crutches from mid way through I was feeling OK right up until delivery. I could do everything at my own pace so I think that really helped.

2nd... I had very minimal discomfort compared to my first but I was floored with exhaustion by 30 weeks. I looked it too as, unknown to me, my iron was low. I had a toddler to run after and day to day life to attend to so rest was out the window. Definitely felt it more

(lost my 3rd at 16 weeks unfortunately but I was so ill and unable to go about day to day life from about 7 weeks)

4th... I'm mid way thro and I'm now at the point where by 4pm I'm done with the day, my pelvis hurts and I've got various other unpleasant symptoms.

Echoing a lot of other comments here (which has been reassuring for me too!) but with my first, I didn't feel discomfort at all really - maybe a few days before my DD was born when I was swollen and ready to pop?

Now pregnant with my second, currently 28 weeks (but feel waaaay further along), and this pregnancy has been a whole other ball game!! Permanently exhausted from about 9 weeks, feeling huge, nausea, heartburn and now started with PGP 😫😫. The joys!!
