Im around 7 months and lately my knees and fingers ache so much, especially mornings. MIL says its normal pregnancy thing but I wanted to hear from others. Did u all get joint pain too?
I had bad joint pain too, and my doctor found my thyroid levels were a bit off, which was adding to the fatigue and aches. Please get your regular thyroid and calcium blood tests done as per your doc's advice. It's best to keep checking these levels regularly.
I have heard from my married cousins that joint pain can definitely happen because of all the weight gain and hormonal changes. It sounds really tough to deal with. I hope you find some relief soon, take care of yourself.
Yes, it's very common, especially because of the hormone relaxin loosening the joints. With my PCOS history, my body was already a bit prone to aches, so I had to be very careful. Just don't push yourself too hard and keep your doctor informed.
Oh sweetheart, I totally understand how painful it can be to move around with those aching joints. Your body is doing such a beautiful job growing a miracle, so please rest as much as u can. Sending you a big warm hug.
Look, joint pain is totally normal, especially in the knees and hips because your body is carrying extra weight now. Make sure you are taking your calcium and vitamin D supplements daily without fail. Don't skip them, they really make a huge difference.
Oh yes dear, joint pain is a classic pregnancy symptom as your ligaments stretch. Try some light warm compresses on your knees or ankles, and sit with your feet elevated when you can. It really helps ease the pressure after a long day.
