pregnant ladies go out and do housework

Do you go out for some nearby groceries and do housework like wash toilet and mopping, sweeping floor? How about simple cooking? Me 20weeks. Am doing mopping and washing toilet but not as thoroughly as last time. Cos back pain after doing. After cooking and washing I also feel back pain and head heavy.... Not sure if anyone same as me...

27 weeks, first pregnancy and still doing household chores and grocery shopping and cooking. I try to be as active but not as active as pre-pregnancy and don’t carry heavy things. Yes, exhaustion is real and bad on some days on top of insomnia. Nowadays so difficult to have a proper good night sleep. But I myself can’t stand being in bed / sofa all day without doing anything. Like the brain/mind is not active so I try to do whatever I can and complete the tasks quickly before evening.

Understand and feel u. I'm only 20weeks. Already can feel can't do certain stuff like bend down to scrub toilet tiles etc.. if only wash one or two clothing still OK. Not too long. I like to go out walk but problem is I can't walk long which makes me a bit sad. Plus wear the mask makes me can't breathe well. Ya we have to be active to help in delivery later. Ya I'm worried at 3rd trimester. Sure can't sleep...
