So, I'm just 29 weeks now, but I noticed in the last couple of weeks my hips were starting to hurt more and more. It's now gotten significantly worse--the pain is waking me up at night, and walking around is really hurting a lot. My wrists are bad, too, but those hurt before I ever got pregnant, so I figure that's par for the course. And yesterday my knees were a bit wobbly. But the hips--ow!
Now I am not one who wants to complain in any way, given it took almost 5 years to get here and I have been blessed with two at once. But I am looking for advice on how to alleviate at least some of the pain. I take Tylenol and a warm bath before bed, and I can usually get a good 4 hours or so of sleep with that (unless I have to pee, of course!). But during the day I just don't know what to do! Tylenol helps a little, but not enough to make a huge difference.
Does anyone else have this issue? Doc says it's very common with twin pregnancies, but she didn't have much advice on how to deal with it. (Of course, it wasn't quite this bad then, either, so I should maybe call again.) Even someone to commiserate with would be lovely! Image may be NSFW.
