Any having major fibromyalgia flareups while pregnant?

Bex • Life...uh...finds a way 🦖

I'm 16 weeks and have fibromyalgia. I have not been one of the lucky ones that go into remission while pregnant, but I have been fortunate enough to not have any significant flareups during my first trimester. Second trimester is turning into a whole new beast. I could barely sleep, tossing and turning endlessly, not getting comfortable in any position. My watch says I got 5 hrs 57 mins of sleep but only 1 hr and 37 mins was actually deep REM sleep, OMG. No wonder I feel dead. I woke with an instant pounding headache, legs and back hurting so badly from neck to sciatica, and my skin so sensitive I want to cry if anything touches me right now. Nerves feel like they are on fire. If your Rheumotologist ever says you'll go into remission when you're pregnant, it is not always true.
