So I’m 21 weeks pregnant. Quite overweight have been since my first pregnancy I’ve done really well so far in this pregnancy losing a bit of weight. My loved ones are worried about gestational diabetes and as a result quite pushy about me doing exercise (as I’m eating quite well also trying my hardest anyway) I have pelvic girdle pain quite severely near the end of the first pregnancy which continued a good year with the aid of physio and losing a bit of weight it went away. But I think it’s back already along with sciatica the whole shebang. I’m trying to do more exercise because I’m feeling bullied (and I know it’s out of love) but I’ve really hurt myself now I was on my feet a long time yesterday about 5 hours when I woke this morning I still had almost cramp in my legs all day and pain in my joints. Instead of resting I went for a walk and took my toddler out as life dosent stop because I’m sore… big mistake. It was only a walk bit 8000 steps later I get home and I’m in absolute agony the later it’s getting the worse the pain. I know I’ve done it to myself and I’m so angry but I feel totally caught between a rock and a hard place. I don’t have an antenatal appointment until Wednesday and at this point I’m so desperatlty in pain I don’t think I’ll last. Let alone wait for a referal. The pain is everywhere from mid back to my ankles. Worse in the front of my pelvis and on on side of my hip. I looked up exercise to gently stretch bit I’m I so much pain I can’t get in the positions to do them. I’ve got another 20 weeks of this give or take and I just feel dead inside thinking about it 😭😭😭 any advice is helpful but I guess what I’m really looking for is ‘I feel your pain and I survived’ xx
