13 1/2 weeks and loads of pressure down below

[KimmyLou]

Hi,
I'm now 13 1/2 weeks and woken up to loads of pressure on the low front and back passage. Has anyone else felt this? I was wondering whether it was baby growing too big for my pelvis area? Any advice appreciated, thanks X

I don't think baby is to big for your pelvis area. As your uterus grows it moves other things out of the way - therefore making things feel different all the time. I feel "bottom heavy" all of the sudden it seems like my lower half is full. My doctor suggested a belly band. It just helps to make it feel like everything is in its place

Don't know what it is but I feel this on and off all the time and I am 15 weeks! When it becomes bothersome I drink some ice water, lay on my left side, and put a pillow between my knees and behind my back. Helps me relax if nothing else.
