I’m very uncomfortable already and can’t walk fast and the recognisable pregnancy walk has already started. Just feel very full and some inner thing pain. I’d love to hear when your pregnancy waddling started? Reassuring me I’m not alone

How far along are you? I’m five months in and no waddling yet!

First pregnancy it was quite late, maybe 33/34 weeks and with pre-eclampsia so I had very swollen feet and ankles. That was during covid so I was out walking every day.

I'm now 30 weeks with DD2 and I've much less energy this time round. I went for a walk today.l for the first time in ages and I actually did think to myself that the waddle was starting!

Ds probs not until i finished work at 36 weeks. Defo at 38 i rememeber it when walking somewhere with family.

Dd from about 20 weeks. My sciatica and PGP were bad tho from like 8 weeks. Dd was my 5th pregnancy (albeit only 2nd successfully to get passed 25 weeks). My body had given up with life by the time I was pregnant with my DD

I don’t think I waddled at all in my last pregnancy even when I overdue.

It didn’t really start at all with my first pregnancy, I was fit as a fiddle before getting pregnant and kept really well all the way through, but it’s just kicked in properly now this time around at 32 weeks!

I've been fine but the waddling started around 35 weeks! I'm now 38 weeks and it is about the same

I somehow managed to avoid waddling altogether in my last pregnancy and I went to nearly 41 weeks, my bump was pretty small though. This time may be different as I've heard everything is worse the second time round 🙈

I'm 35 weeks with my third and have definitely noticed the waddling. I also noticed after eating I feel heavier so I waddle more. Less waddling on an empty stomach??
