I posted something similar a few weeks ago about feeling bruised and almost tender to touch. A few ladies reassured me they had felt similar and now at 30 weeks it's definitely eased but there's still certain parts of my bump that feel like this, and I think it depends on what position bubs is in20 weeks now and everyday I seem to have a sore tummy.. but more below boobs/upper tummy. Feels bruised almost. Anyone else experienced this?
Hi! You sound like me, felt really nauseous from about 6/7 weeks up until about 13 weeks, I still feel more tired than I normally would but way better than the first trimester. Similar to you because I felt worse this time than I did with my first, and I’ve been told it’s because your body’s been through it before, knows what to do, and therefore floods your body with the hormones quicker second time round so you can feel worse. I’m 16 weeks now and apart from getting tired by around 3pm, I’m okayAlmost 8 weeks pregnant with baby no.2 and I just feel rotten! In the last week, I’ve developed horrendous nausea that lasts pretty much all day and a real aversion to food in general! I’m forcing myself to eat three meals still but it’s not enjoyable. This is from someone who normally loves food so it’s quite upsetting! Also struggling to drink anything except water. The tiredness is off the charts too.
I’m trying to remember what the early weeks felt like last time (it’s about 4.5 years ago) and I remember being tired and a bit nauseous but this just seems next level. Just looking for some reassurance from anyone else who felt like this early on and now feels better? I’m telling myself that it will pass but as I just seem to feel worse each day, it’s getting hard to feel positive. Feel a bit like I’m just existing at the moment and then feel guilty as we have longed for this baby for ages.
I told my mumAh thank youand I'm sorry you've dealt with similar feelings as well. Did you tell family early on? I held off telling family until I was about 14 weeks before and certain members definitely got the hump that I'd kept it to myself that long. I'd rather keep it to myself for longer this time tbh, I'm not sure my anxiety can cope with the added pressure and drama of other people. As soon as my kids know, the entire school will know, and the thought of all the unsolicited comments is making me feel like crying! Nevermind how pissed off some family members will be if I keep quiet again. Maybe I need to try harder not to be such a people-pleaser
yes I had this for a while around 20 weeks or so, it went away, it felt quite tender but never bruised. I thought it might have been a hernia perhaps but it never came to anything and went away by itself. Maybe worth mentioning to midwife or GP if it gets really uncomfortable?
Thankyou both! Reassuring to hear it’s not just me. Yeah it defo feels tender. I’ll see how it goes next week or so and mention to midwife if not! It’s not painful as such. Seems to start after Iv eaten fist thing of the morning!!I posted something similar a few weeks ago about feeling bruised and almost tender to touch.

No I have to say they didn’t bother me when I was in labour, or until about 2 days afterwards when everything felt slightly less like a steel toe capped boot had attacked me, suddenly I felt so much more aware of them and they felt so much worse. I just tried to take as much pressure as I could off my bum so that it wasn’t quite as painful. I used Epsom salts in a shallow bath as well just to clean the area and soak them slightly before a shower.Did you notice them at all during labour? I have visions of them bursting or something horrificThank you for the reassurance, my husband has popped out to grab me some germaloids so let’s hope I get some relief in before baby comes I’m glad your bum plum went away after! Pregnancy is so glamorous x
I’m currently 24 weeks and we’re expecting to exchange when I’m around 30 weeks (which is also Xmas)Have to say I cannot recommend moving house in early pregnancy. I didn’t think it was possible for me to be more exhausted but after a day of packing and shifting things around, I feel I could sleep for a week. Regretting not booking some annual leave this week to take the pressure off of moving. It’ll be worth it once we’re moved but there’s still so much to do and I just don’t have it in me right now
Oh that’s interesting about the hormones. Thanks for the reply- glad you’re feeling okay. Early pregnancy can feel quite lonely I think as not many people know so I feel like I‘m just moaning to my hubby all the time! Hoping I feel a bit better by the time christmas comes round- will be devastated if I can’t stomach Christmas dinner!Hi!

I felt awful from about six weeks until sixteen. Omeperazole helped massively as I think a lot of my nausea stemmed from acid reflux.

Hey this sounded exactly like me, I struggled to even find drinks I could stomach sipping. However it does get better I’m 14 weeks now and the last few weeks I’ve felt less sick, have more energy and I am enjoying food again. Today is the first day I haven’t felt sick at all, hang in there it will get better. I did also get some sickness medication from the doctors that helped when it was really badAlmost 8 weeks pregnant with baby no.2 and I just feel rotten!

Good luck settling in and unpacking! We're completing tomorrow and I'm also 25 weeks so not looking forward to this one bit!

Sounds like round ligament to meAnother day another question… coming up 21 weeks now. Had quite a few short sharp shooting pains to the left hand side quite low down. Isn’t happening when I’m moving around… so wasn’t sure if it was round ligament! Anyone had similar? Is this a concern?
Ah ok,Sounds like round ligament to me
Hope everything is okayBaby not moving again this morning so looks like another trip to go and get monitoredI feel like as the weeks are going on I’m more concerned when I don’t feel him as I think to myself how can I not feel a 32 week 4lbs 6oz baby!
