Anyone with pelvic girdle pain?

Question

Or symphis pubis disfunction? 
For a couple days now I've had unbearable back, hip and pelvic pain. I even got sent to labor and delivery last night to get checked out. But they couldn't find anything. 
Doc said to call if things don't get better this week, but I found the info for PGP and SPD and am going to call back for a referral to physical therapy to see if that's what it is. 
Does anyone else have this? What are some good ways you've been able to aleviate pain?

Answer

Same here! Trying to do kegels 2+ times a day helps a lot.

Answer

Yes! This is my second pregnancy and let's just say my labor and delivery with my first was unusually hard on my pelvis. My chiropractor and doctor are watching it closely. At my last appointment around 22 weeks they both said the pain could get slightly better as weeks go on or not. 😑 By the end of the day I literally felt like someone was pulling a part my pelvis! It has gotten better over the last week. There are certain stretches I avoid now and I purchased a pregnancy support girdle thing. I also find I have to lay down after activity with a few pillows in between my legs.

Answer

My doctor told me I have this at my last visit... He didn't offer to much help  other than to wear a maternity belt to give myself some extra support and to rest when the pain gets to intense. I've heard from other moms that physical therapy can help! I plan on talking to my doctor about it at my next appointment. I take warm baths in the evening after being active and moving all day and it helps a lot also.. Good luck!

Answer

I have the same pains but my dr told me that it's the baby and my uterus growing and it happens during the second and third trimester. He told me there's nothing that can be done for it but to stay hydrated and lay down or sit for a while when it happens. I use a warm/hot bath and a heating pad. Good luck

Answer

Purchase a good pregnancy girdle and find a chiropractor who specializes in maternal care! It has made a world of difference for me!

Answer

I believe I have this.. First time gaving it out of 3 pregnancy s... Frustrating...

Answer

No fun. Mine is back this pregnancy too. Last time for temporary relief I though chiropractor and massage helped. Tylenol and sleeping with pillow between legs and rest. The other thing I tried that didn't help much were the support belt (maybe I needed a different one).

Answer

Makes 3rd time I've had it 😦 I'm almost 23wks and it's gotten way worse
