You guys all know my story, Im 29 weeks.. but anyways..lol
My legs, the upper area has been so sore.. it feels like okay, you know when u use a thigh master or ride a horse for the first time ur inner thights hurt,, well mine are hurting and I dont know why..
This has been going on for about a week or two now.. Im just wondering what it is..thank you!

Hey I know it feels like saddle legs!....It's completely normal...I had EXACTLY the same thing in my first pregnancy (haven't had it in my other 3). It's just your muscles and ligaments softening up in anticipation of labour. It doesn't mean that labour is soon - just every now and again (week here and there or for the rest of your pregnancy) you will feel that sensation...a bit like someone's kicked you in the jollies or you've had fantastic all night sex lol!!! Your hormones are responsible for this happening to your muscles and ligaments. You'll be fine and it's completely normal. (As long as there's no bleeding!).

Completely normal...it only gets better!!! Im too the point I cant hardly sleep at night.  Between the bathroom breaks, my legs and back hurting and my stomach feeling like it is stretched to the limit and going to explode. Oh an those darn braxton hicks...as my hubby calls them toni braxton contractions!  We got our lamaze classes on DVD and the instructor told a story about a guy calling them toni braxton contractions so I guess that how my hubby remembers them from now on!  Best of luck!!!
