Feel REALLY heavy below at 21 weeks?

Question

This is my second child and I don't remember my son ever feeling this heavy so early on, only the last few weeks. 
It's like every step I take, makes the heaviness more prominent and almost hurts to walk. But it doesn't "hurt" it's just a lot of pressure at the bottom of my abdomen. 
I asked my nurse practitioner about it and she said to drink more water. Okay cool.. Helpful.. Any tips or ideas? Or does anyone know what's causing this?

Answer

I'm 21 weeks today with girl (2nd child). She is sitting breech pretty much all the time and I get the pressure constantly along with cramps. Doc appt today and everything is good. Doc said same thing. More water and baby moving growing. Everything is normal and not to worry....

But only you truly know ur body and the amount of pain. If something doesn't "feel" right or its horrible pain then maybe u need to talk to doc. Could be something like bladder Infection or UTI, yeast infection or something that needs attention.

Hope it all gets better for ya :) good luck

Answer

Make sure you aren't constipated. 
That's when I feel this.

Answer

This has happened to me a couple times with my second. I am 20w4d and had a horrible time driving the other day because every time I moved my foot to the other pedal I felt this pressure in my lower belly. It didn't hurt like you said just very heavy pressure... It's gone now and I'm assuming that it's just the baby and uterus growing.
