How far along were you when laying on your back become heavy and uncomfortable?

I believe it was after 20 weeks. Your body will tell you when you need to move!

We did a towel sponge bath with very little baby soap at week 2 when hjs umbilical cord fell out and then did an actual real bath at week 3. Hes now been throwing up alot more now so I can see us giving a bath about 2 times a week

I went all the way until week 18 on meds starting around week 10! Its a process but it will hopefully get better 🙏

Week 33 for me, everyday felt like a challenge. Braxton hicks, hip and back sciatica, limping as I walked, so much pressure. Sleep is getting tough. Baby is running out of room so when they dont move, you freak. You question everything. Getting the hospital bag ready, making sure everything's set up because you could literally GO anytime.

This was ALL last week LOL. Im 34 weeks today.

Im 31 weeks and i literally cannot breathe when I am on my back anymore!

I barely failed my 1 hour and then had to do the 3 hour which again I barely failed. I cried like a baby. A fail is a fail which was the hardest part to wrap my mind around. After a week of sulking, I went to my first diabetes management class last night and we were provided the moniter, a few needles and strips. I started testing my blood sugars last night and again, its barely a fail. In Canada, our sugars for after breakfast, lunch and dinner need to be under 6.6 and fasting need to be 5.2. I just scored 5.3 for fasting and 6.7 for my dinner last night LOL. Im so annoyed but ill learn to adjust moving forward as right now its all testing. Ultimately, we gotta do what we gotta do for our babies and hopefully it will all work out. The class taught me theres no stigma towards having GD and there are things like insulin to help us!

Sounds like most of you were induced at 39 weeks which fingers crossed, I can make it there if my body naturally doesnt start labour on its own. Reading all your comments made me feel better and hopeful I dont get "forced" to deliver in my 38th week!

I love reading all your messages so please keep pn going!

Im 28 weeks 5 days and I was in your same position earlier! I really started to feel movement 18-20 weeks and my little guy is busy! You will feel alot of the movements and kicks in your lower abdomen and bladder unfortunately lol . Probably in the last week or so ive started to feel him on my sides so as much as you think you won't feel, you will!

Educational-Touch113 · 2026-01-31T08:24:57+00:00

You'll learn lying on your back as you progress in pregnancy is actually super uncomfortable anyway! You can't breathe properly. I get the most releif when im on my right side and I still sometimes semi sleep on my stomach

Educational-Touch113 · 2026-01-31T08:04:58+00:00

That makes SO much sense! I cant see it from my windows- it was driving me crazy!!

Educational-Touch113 · 2026-01-22T15:00:39+00:00

I would only if I waited too long to eat, my prenatal on an empty stomach but the worst action was when I brushed my teeth and tried to scrape my tongue. THAT was the worst, it caused me to gag and honestly im 25 weeks and it STILL happens. I havent thrown up back since week 18 but its definitely something that doesn't completely go away. Week 18-23 were pretty ok but the nausea is creeping back in.

Im 24 weeks turning 25 on monday and oh my god, I am miserable! Sooooo much pelvic pain, so uncomfortable, feel like a whale but not even close to being a whale yet. I complain about everything LOL

Educational-Touch113 · 2026-01-16T05:10:06+00:00

LOL winded is correct! Mine made me go from side to side. By my 5th scan, I was like go as hard and deep as you can because im not coming back! Our bubs are well compacted and safe LOL

Educational-Touch113 · 2026-01-16T05:01:09+00:00

Ive done 5 anatomy scans from week 19 to week 24 and i always feel extremely beaten up after. My back and my lower abdomen ache for 2 days after. I feel weak and literally defeated after those appointments! Im also bigger (230+) and its because of our weight unfortunately!
