Recently my legs feel so heavy, like ive weights attached to them. i am finding myself limping at times and at night when i turn in bed it feels like my legs are so heavy as well as my pelvis being really sore. any1 else get this withn their legs? im dreading doing school runs next week when kids go back its a long walk and walking round the house limping is sore.

Mine has ups and downs. Some days I have problems with my inner thighs and my hips, and some days I don't. But ever since I was about 38 weeks it feels like there is a bowling ball in between my legs, such intense pressure but I am assuming thats from her pushing down/engaging.

yeah i never felt that mine never were engaged. i do feel pressure pushing down a lot this time though (although he has been breech for a good while)

do you find anything that helps? its so difficult to sleep, walk anything atm lol praying it doesnt get any worse.

Mine are sometimes like this - I notice it mostly if I've been up and about a lot, or walking up and down the stairs.

Thats the way i was up until recently it would be mostly sore if i had been walking about or out. but now its just everyday even when ive been in house all day relaxing.

same here, does not matter if i dont do anything now its incredibly painful and by the end of the day i have to get OH to lift my legs up onto couch as it hurts so much

Mrsctobe · Apr 11th, 2012, 08:41 AM

its awfull i just dont know how much worse it will get or how i'll manage. i dread having to do school runs as its a far walk. saying that i dread going to bed cos i will wake up in pain x

I have on and off days , main pain is getting in and out of car and bed. I went physio and they gave me a belt but I don't do such long activities that I'd need to wear it.

5 more weeks or less till baby is here hopefully won't get worse!!

Right now I am trying to get her out lol so I am trying to do more stuff so am in more discomfort/pain but earlier in my pregnancy I found that taking hot baths helped alot, and resting with my legs up helped too. Sleeping at night with a pillow between my knees also helped. I got OH to massage my knees and my feet and still do now. And sometimes my hip on my backside. Other than that I have suffered since 23 weeks

does it not go away after you have the baby? please tell me it does or i'll cry!
i got a tubigrip and belt from physio but it doesnt do anything for me x
