Anyone else with fibromyalgia and pregnant?

Question

I'm 24 ive had fibromyalgia since I was a child. Of course with each year it gets worse. When I was pregnant with my son 4 years ago it was manageable. Now I'm 21 weeks pregnant and I can barely make myself get out of bed in the morning. This time around my pregnancy and running after my son is just marking all my fibro symptoms 10 times worse. Anyone else been though this?

Answer

I have fibro for this pregnancy. I've had symptoms all my life, but the full onset seems to have happened as a result of giving birth to my daughter. I have no idea what to expect. I miss my gabapentin.

Answer

I have it! It's worse in the 1st and 3rd trimester. I go see a chiropractor for adjustments for a little relief.

Answer

Yep! I too have fibromyalgia. It's been an uphill battle. My pregnancy has been relatively easy going but the fibro makes me miserable most days.

Answer

The only thing I've ever taken for pain is ibuprofen because my family doesn't have the greatest history with prescription meds but I'm missing just my ibuprofen. Some of the main yoga poses I'm used to doing for my fibro I can't do either while pregnant which also sucks.
