I'm SO uncomfortable!

Maybe I'm in denial about how far along I am but it just seems kind of early to be this uncomfortable. My belly feels SO heavy and it seems like every time he moves, it hurts. It's to a point that I rarely get to enjoy feeling the movements. I know I'm carrying him really far to the front and that probably accounts for all the stretching pains in my back and sides, but I really don't remember it being this bad when I was carrying the girls! Anyone else dealt with this? Any suggestions (besides "stay off your feet" b/c we all know that's not an option when you have twins!)?

 

I've been feeling the same way. I think as women we seem to forget the pains of pregnancy and don't really remember how much we wadled around. I have to believe that I was more uncomfortable with a belly 'twice' the size of what it is now, but like you, I feel like I am way more top heavey. I don't really have any suggestions, but I can totally sympathize!!

 

No advice here, but I know I will be feeling how you are soon enough! :hug99:

 

I found (I havent tried it) but it looks like a belt that goes around your waist to provide with you with more support. You might want to try it. I am sure if you go into any maternity store they willl know exactly what it is called. I hope this helps.

the only other thought I have is that maybe you have a Diastisis Recti that developed late in the pregnancy. If this never closed up, it would make sense that you would have pain sooner in this pregnancy - your ab muscles might not be supporting it as well. I know if I had another pregnancy I'd have this problem.
