What is this?!

Question

I'll be 36 weeks tomorrow and the past few weeks when I am going to bed and throughout the night, my pelvic/vag bone literally feels like it is breaking. Like my muscle is ripping from my bone. I've told my doctor and she said its normal and okay as long as it's not all day. Well the past few nights it has gotten worse and when I move certain ways I feel popping. What is this? Is this normal? Is this a sign of her moving down and being closer to ready?

Answer

I've also had this exact feeling since my 15th week (26 weeks now). Doc says it's the ligaments in my pelvic area loosening and that's it's totally normal. I hear feel your pain though, it hurts so bad to move my legs and turn  over at night.

Answer

I feel your pain. It's softening and it means baby is getting ready to appear! You could still go at 38 weeks or 40. No true way of knowing. Good luck at your next doctors appt!

Answer

I am right there with you.. 36 weeks.. I have been slightly more uncomfortable when laying down.. but a pillow between the knees definitely helps, as well as some support on the baby bump.. I hope it's just baby getting the muscles ready for burth! Lol! 
But I have also been having to stretch my hips out.. feels so much better, esp with the exercise ball!

Answer

I'm 19 weeks and have felt exactly what your describing since 15 weeks. I think it's just your body adjusting to baby. And birth.

Answer

She's probably just moving down
