Joint pain at 6 weeks??

evel91

I've been having a lot of body issues that preceded me discovering that I'm pregnant (almost 7 weeks now), but one relatively new and concerning one is that my knees hurt. For maybe a month or a bit longer my knees have been hurting me and it has nothing to do with exercise. Could this be related to a VERY early pregnancy? It seems like it would be too early in the pregnancy to affect my joints, but I wonder if anyone else has had joint pain so early on?

My knees have been hurting too! I stopped using the peloton when we found out I was pregnant 2/14, and still get sore knees (my knees were never sore before this) very weird! I’m going to ask my doctor when I go for my ultrasound on Monday.

The hormone relaxin starts circulating the body pretty early on in pregnancy and can make joints looser, which can cause pain. My SI joints in my back are already starting to hurt and I’m not quite 7 weeks.
