Going thru an uncomfy phase

For the past few days I've just felt uncomfy :/ No pain or cramping just uncomfortable! Im going on 18 weeks. Too early to complain, i know, but just curious if anyone else felt like this?
Im a bit more tired now but not like 1st tri by any means. My tummy is obviously growing and feels 'tighter' and below belly button is even a bit more tighter feeling. Like i said tho no pain. I can feel it more when i get up from sitting/laying down.
And at night my legs are restless and i just get a weird feeling in tummy. I think it may be baby moving around but Im not feeling any strong movements yet :(
Oh and the headaches... ugh!! But i work at computer all day so that doesn't help.

Any thoughts/ advice? Thanks ladies :)

Oh no, and you have every right to complain if you want to, haha! Making a baby is hard work! The tightness feeling I've had with both of my pregnancies, and both of my babies are healthy, so it must be normal! I'm not really sure what causes it though, I'm sure it's just your belly growing!

Thank you! I was feeling great since 11 weeks so I hope it goes back to that :) I fully understand the 'ups & downs'. And don't mean to sound like Im complaining- just a ftm with lots of questions, haha! The tightness feeling is normal too? Just belly growing?

I felt great my entire first trimester, started feeling crappy in my 2nd trimester for a while, for like 2-3 weeks at about 18 weeks and felt great after that, am now 37w5d and starting to feel crappy again, I think it's pretty normal! It'll come and go!
