24 weeks and already feeling shattered

I'm 24 weeks with my third and can't get over how different this pregnancy feels compared to my first two, I'm just finding things way harder than I expected.

With my first two I flew through things after the 1st trimester, was very active, training and moving house and doing DIY and decorating.

This time round stamina is already way lower, we went shopping today and after two shops I hit the wall and called it a day.

Hips feel achey, can't get into the car without a "hurgh" sound as I bend down, pretty sure my feet are getting fatter too which I'm not impressed about 😅

pretty sure it's cus I'm older this time... 16 more weeks feels like a lifetime away, not sure what the point in this post is really just wanted to put write it down somewhere I guess.

Solidarity here! I’m 33 weeks with my third and feel the same as I did at term with the last one. Much more achey and exhausted. I have been going to a physio which has helped a bit with the aches.
good luck.
