How can being this sore be normal?!?!?

Question

I LITERALLY feel like I was in a car accident. I'm 36w3d and idk how much more I can take. I've been sore for week's but today I woke up to even the joints of my fingers in pain and Stiff (like if I slept with my fingers bent back)

My pelvis even more sore to the extent I want to cry when I spread my legs to get out of bed.
Strangely enough I'm so nauseated too.. And for the first time in my whole pregnancy my feel are swollen and hurt when I walk (feels like I went out dancing in 6 inch heels)

I hate to sound like I cry baby but I honestly just want to cry I'm so fucking miserable. I can't be the only one who feels this way?? This isn't just " I'm sore" this is " I can't even get up to bathe" sore

Answer

I was about to post this. I've been sore for about 2 weeks now. Even switching sides in bed hurts. My muscles are so weak I feel like!!! And yeah some mornings it feels like I've been clenching my fists all night. I think it's just a side effect of the hormones our bodies are giving off to relax us. Just struggle through it another couple weeks haha tylenol is your friend ☺️

Answer

Try to practice log roll getting in or out of bed to help minimize pelvic pain and keep your knees and thighs together as much as possible if you can.  Personally when I'm sitting down I use my boppy pillow to keep my knees together or ill sit by the side of the couch and tons of pillows on my free side.

Definitely in a ton of pain though, I've been feeling popping and grinding in my pelvis and lower back and I definitely limp a little my first few steps after getting up or out of bed bc of the back, hip, and pelvis pain.

Answer

Especially in middle of night I guess after I've been still for an hour or so. I go to get up and I burst into tears and moans because it hurts so bad to get out of bed. Then when I put weight on my feet my legs damn near buckle and I get sharp stabbing pains through my low back and pelvis and my feet feel like they could literally explode from all the fluid build up. It's truly miserable. My husband thinks i exaggerate the symptoms. Oh if he only knew how it felt. Bc I complain about these aches and pains he tells me he doesn't think I'm capable of a natural birth and is encouraging an epidural. I feel like I'm not allowed to complain at all! It's frustrating. Just venting!

Answer

I always wake up sore, & in a lil pain. Today  I'm that & extremely nauseous 😣😣 can these 4 weeks please hurry up.

Answer

So glad I'm not the only one! My pelvis feels like it was run over by a car, I can barely stomach food sometimes, and just the other day I noticed the swollen feet thing. I just want to hibernate in bed for the next couple weeks until he's here.
