Sore feet. Why sore so early on?

Question

I work 12 hour shifts and normally can work 3 in a row fine but I'm 23 weeks pregnant and find that after one shift my feet are pulsing. Why is this happening already? My ankles aren't too swollen and my bump isn't that big yet. I wear supportive shoes in work.

Answer

I think we feel this way because the doctors and nurses make us believe that were so early in pregnancy and we're not we're over halfway there if you're at least 22 weeks you're in your 6 th month you will officially be 6 months on week 24 but starting at 22 weeks you are in that 6 month so I mean we're on our last month of being in the second trimester we were almost in our third trimesters so it's not early it's just surprising because things change so fast that's how I felt too at first when my feet would hurt or my hand started to tingle and swell it's like already but it's not already it's like hey  in a month you're going to be in your third trimester so just get used to it ladies and 12 hours is nothing to sneeze at so I definitely congratulate you on being able to work that shift because I work 4 7 hour shifts in a row and the three days that I'm off I sleep

Answer

Ikr, I'm 23 weeks also and it seems like out of the blue my feet are swelling and sore, and sweating. Checked my bp this morning and it was 112/73 so just wondering what's up. I don't remember this happening so early with my last.
