I am 27 weeks and have SEVERE tailbone pain.

I can’t get up without feeling like my butt is ripping in half, sleeping at night is horrendous turning over and sitting down flat on my bottom is a no go and bending over? Don’t even get me started.

Already been the l&d for barely being able to walk and the emergency room and there’s nothing they could do for me. Tried a chiropractor and they made it worse. I’m In physical therapy now and it doesn’t seem to be making any improvements.

So my question is to all the mommas that experienced pain like this during their pregnancy how did delivery go and your recovery afterwards? Did the tailbone pain go away after you gave birth?

I’m really trying to avoid c-section and want an epidural but I don’t think there’s anyway I could deliver laying down on my back and I’m worried about damaging my tailbone even more. I have a 2 year old and I’m very worried about recovery with her and a newborn and dealing with healing from tailbone pain and a csection.

With my first I had her out in 3 pushes and dilated very quickly (had her within the first 5 hours of being at the hospital) and had NO problems last time but I also never had tailbone pain either so this is all new to me.

Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
