Sore Groin-area?

Question

Has anyone been experiencing soreness in the muscles like connecting the legs to the pubic area? I've been experiencing this for a while and it's getting worse. I'm hoping someone here has experienced it and found out why/figured out a relief for it. I figured it was because my boy has pretty much been sitting in my pelvis area my entire pregnancy, and it was like too much for my body to hold for so long? Anyways, whatever suggestions you guys have are welcomed lol need a good position for sleeping cause I can't seem to get in one tonight 😂

Answer

Same here. Feels like someone punched me in the crotch 🙄 like a bruised feeling. Dr checked cervix at last appointment and all was ok. I ordered a maternity band to see if that helps. Stinks bc I looove walking and walk almost every day- last night I could barely get off the couch after one of my walks!! Ouchhhh 😏

Answer

I don't think it's something that can be fixed until you give birth unfortunately. I had it with my first pregnancy toward the end and now I'm having it again. I'm currently almost 33 weeks. It's your nerves and your pelvis opening. Putting on pants is dreadful! As soon as the baby is born it should immediately go away though! :)

Answer

Had it every single day since the 2nd week of June. Currently 35 weeks and it has only gotten worse. 😐

Answer

Extremely painful! Normal though. I haven't found relief at all unfortunately.

Answer

Okay ladies, I've tried a few things this weekend and here's what's helped me:
A body pillow supporting my belly & between my legs helps. When trying to turn in bed, keeping my knees together makes it less painful. Warm baths help and butterfly streatches seem to help too. Anyone try anything new?

Answer

I have this but not all the time. Mostly in bed when I'm turning over its really sore and sometimes when I have worked a long day it is painful. Apparently putting a pillow in between your legs at night is meant to help

Answer

I have this but I went to physio finally and she said because baby was so low my pelvis had misaligned slightly. She did some magic which helped and gave me some exercises to do. Also I have started sleeping on a make shift pillow ramp which has really really helped. Stay strong mama.

Answer

Some ideas to try (may or may not work for you, idk):

1. Sit on the floor with one leg stretched out in front of you and the other one bent inward. (Like the lady in yellow).

2. Do the butterfly pose (like the lady in pink).

3. Soak in a warm, but not too warm, bath with Epsom salt.

Hope you find some relief. :)

Answer

I had a very sore groin area to the left side. It is much worse after working or pushing myself for a long time. 
I found out (bc it's hard to see down there) that I had varicose veins all along the left side of my vaginal area! 😱
The left side leading down is quite swollen. My midwife says it's normal & will retreat after birth. It's just bc his head is sort of blocking all the blood circulating trying against gravity to come back up from the legs. 
They make a support belt called a V2 for this. I haven't went that route but icing it does help out as well.
