Joint pain! Ouch!

[Pink Sunshine]

Hi everyone. I am happy to join this group...finally! I got my BFP yesterday! But, I have lots and lots of joint pain. My knees to my ankles are the worst. It hurts to stand, so I just stay in bed. Has anone else had this and what should i do? Thanks!!!

It's probably just the hormone relaxin creeping into your body and your body adjusting to all the pregnancy hormones. I nice warm (not hot!) bath should make you feel better and plenty of rest

Congratulations by the way

As above, it's probably all those extra hormones... or even the extra blood flow that may had started already? Pregnancy can do some crazy things to our bodies for sure!!!! Maybe try some stretches too? If it continues, it can't hurt to ask your doctor if there is anything you can do. Might just be a phase your body will go through though.

Best of luck!

I wake up most mornings with really bad hip pains more so in my left hip so I try not to sleep on that side even though it is recommended. I do toss and turn all night long, does it go away quickly after the baby is born. I am 31 weeks now

I have spd, not particularly joint pain. However from my knees to my toes I have pain due to swelling.

Fully sympathise with all the aches and pains, not good
