Hello Ladies

I am 21 weeks pregnant this week and have few questions about your experiences during your second trimester..

Has anyone suffered from a sore back this early on? Does your bossom just keep getting bigger and bigger? I have gone up 4 bra sizes already! I think I have felt a few flutterings but can't be sure as this is our first baby and don't really know what It should feel like.

Are sharp pains/stitch type pains in your groin normal? Is it just ligaments stretching etc.? I was a bit worried that perhaps I had an infection as I am still being woken by my bladder 2 or 3 times in the night and each time it feels like I haven't been for a week.

I am very glad not to be so tired all the time at the moment and am making the most of it.

We had a sexing scan a few weeks ago and found out I am expecting a girl, I can't wait to go out shopping for lovely cute clothes.

Thank you for reading and sorry If i have waffled on for too long. Hope you are all having a lovely Christmas.

Best Wishes

Julie

I always suffer with low down back pain from fairly early on in pregnancy it's pressure in your pelvis and stretching ligaments. Yup your boobs grow forever and wait until your milk comes in!! The first movements of a baby quite often feel a bit like little bubbles or wind type movements, little flutterings sound good. Sharp pains that come quickly and take your breath away but are infrequent is your ligaments stretching just take it easy and be careful. Weeing a lot is normal also but if you think you might have an infection it's worth popping to the mw and taking a sample to check it's very common to get urine infections in pregnancy. Congrats on your little girl hope it all goes well for you.

Stretchy ligament pains I have had all the way through. My breasts go up a couple of sized but sadly , not that much.

Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy.
