I'm having some bad anemia right now, so I'm going to talk to my midwife tomorrow at my appointment to see what I should do about it. My acid reflux is getting worse as well. The round ligament pain is real! And the back pain. And the weird pain above my bellybutton (which the internet says is also round ligament pain.) I love feeling the baby kick, though! If that counts as a symptom, it is my favorite
Yesterday morning I woke up with a start at 4:20 am, with the worst charley horse! It lasted forever! And my leg still hurts today. I thought I was lucky and missing the Charley horses... But, no. They have struck.
Ladies 10/10 would recommend chiropractic care and pelvic floor therapy to help with back/help/pelvic discomfort. I did this with my last and am doing it currently. The aches and pains are real, but there is relief! Also a note on the Charlie horse cramps. I have only had one so far this pregnancy. My last pregnancy I drank Earth Mama’s third trimester tea and didn’t have a single cramp, I plan to start drinking that again next week. I have also heard magnesium lotion in the bottom of your feet at bedtime can help.
