Pregnancy and fibromyalgia
Hello everyone sending all a big hug 🫂. I’ve had quite year, I got diagnosed in February this year, got married in July and about a week ago I found out I am pregnant. I am very happy about my pregnancy and looking forward to this journey, but obviously with fibromyalgia in the picture I feel a bit overwhelmed. I don’t take medication anymore because my symptoms are very manageable up until this last weeks.
Recently I’ve had pain in my knees and ankles as well as lower abdomen. ( I’ve checked with doctors and everything is going very well so far with the baby). I wanted to ask all of the mums in this group about their journeys, and how did they cope with pain during the pregnancy? I haven’t told my Ob/Gyn yet I guess a bit scared of them not taking me seriously if I think something is wrong. (I’ve only met him once so far and he seems very nice empathetic and understanding it is more of a me thing really).
Thank you in advance for all the advice ❤️
