Hello everyone,

I'm 34 weeks 5 days and my bump twinges have started to become definite aches. It's a constant, dull muscles strain kind of ache rather than cramps or contractions, more towards the top of my bump than the bottom. It's bloomin' uncomfy!

Does anyone have any helpful tips that have soothed their aches and pains through the last six weeks or so? Hot baths/pads etc. are what I've been using, and generally resting, but I don't fancy spending the next few weeks couch bound!

Thanks in advance!

If you get any hints, I would like to know as I am suffering the same!

Baths always make me feel better.

get some baby lotion and massage your bump it worked for me when i was having my twins and sooths baby to it really works

Thank you Samantha and DarkHeaven,

I practically live in my bath at the moment, but it's usually sore again within half an hour of getting out. I'm hoping massaging will help, becuase there's no position that's comfortable. Even sitting down is awkward.

I can't take baths here....gonna have to try the lotion cause I'm having the same aches...feels like my whole bump is bruised and it HURTS!

Have a nice warm bath...relax...and then when i get out i use bio oil on my tummy...helps stretch marks and makes you you feel all nice
