Starting to poop out

I'm 20 weeks tomorrow and work is starting to take a toll. I have a desk job, but I work in a huge office so there is lots of walking. My belly seems huge, I've gained 22lbs but with DS I only gained 29, so this is a lot. Anyone else feel like its getting harder? I'm worried that its still early and I already feel like this.

Re: Starting to poop out

  • If it makes you feel any better, I gained 20 pounds by my 20th week and then really didn't gain anymore weight at all until about 32ish weeks.  I started feeling pretty big and uncomfy around 20 weeks due to that weight gain, but since I didn't really gain anymore for a while it evened out and I was able to plug along pretty nicely until all hell broke loose at 27 weeks and I went on bedrest due to PTL.  Hang in there!!

  • I definitely hit a wall around 20 weeks, I was scared because everyone told me you feel so much better in your 2nd trimester!  It got better for me, I don't remember exactly when, but there was some time in between feeling awful and the end that I was good.  Hang in there, it seriously will be over before you know it! :)

  • I didn't start having trouble walking around until very recently, but it is definitely tough on your body to carry around a lot of extra weight.  I hope you feel better soon!

  • Thanks ladies. Hoping some rest and the next week off will give me some energy. Thinking I'm going to WFH at least 2x week when I return. I'm such a fast paced person but I need to slow down

  • I had these very same thoughts this week!  Seriously, do I still have four more months?!  It is hard to comprehend.  I feel massive already.
