Painful to sit down for long periods of time

Hi all! I work in an office and am finding it uncomfortable to be sitting down all day at my desk. I have to keep getting up every 20 mins to walk around. I’ve ordered a cushion from amazon to see if that helps. I’m only 20 + 4 days pregnant. Is anyone else finding this or just me?

Sounds like spd x You neee to speak to hr - occupational health

Yes I am having the same issue and am just under 20weeks🥲 as soon as I sit down I can’t get comfortable and then it makes me get up.. x

HR ordered me a cushion! It’s helped so much…. I’m nearly 19 weeks

I asked HR and they gave me a cushion, I’ve bought my own from Amazon. Hoping it helps! X

Ask to meet with whoever does your risk assessments too. Discuss reasonable adjustments, which might include more breaks so you can get up and walk around. Also speak to your midwife about it and they can refer you for physio. They will give you exercises x
