Joint pain

Anyone else having terrible joint pain?  Its everywhere from hands to feet to hips to thighs. I can barely walk, stand up, or even get on and off the toilet without using the wall lol.  Ive tried warm baths but its not helping anymore.  I saw my Dr today and told him straight up there is no way I can make it through six more weeks of this pain.

Re: Joint pain

  • I used to have joint pain prior to pregnancy. Now it seems amplified - wrists, neck, hips, lower back, knees ankles etc.  In the morning, it take a minute to get out of bed and see if my legs will support me enough to hobble to the bathroom.  It usually eases a bit in the day though. Have you tried massages?  I've had one so far as well as the chair one when I go to get my feet done.  That seems to help a little bit.  Hope you get through it. 
  • I haven't because I was told not to get massages in third trimester.  I know some places offer pregnancy massage but I'm still worried:/  .

  • I have had bad joint pain also since the 2nd tri. My doc told me it's a form of arthritis that should fade after the babies are born. I completely understand how you feel. I see other preggos who can sit on te ground with folded legs and I'm thinking "will I ever be able to do that again??"
    Hang in there! I wish I had some advice!
