Leekee - I think the best indicator of SPD is whether or not you can stand on one leg. I couldn't do that at all when I had SPD throughout my pregnancies. I'd recommend going to a physio, most midwives don't really understand what SPD is, and how to treat it, so your best bet is a physio, chiro, osteo etc.
AFM - well just over 16 weeks now, and still no pelvic pain. I'm sure it will kick in eventually but I'm counting down the weeks for me to be in pain, and its great that it started off at 38 weeks (cos pregnancy starts at 4 obviously and I usually go to 42) so I was prepared to go through 38 weeks of pure pain and misery to get a gorgeous bub, and now its only 26 weeks of possible pure pain and misery - way to go pelvis!! I had my chiro appointment last wednesday and she is AMAZED that my pelvis is holding up as well as it is... so must of been the treatment I had between pregnancies, and throughout this one so far - its kept it at bay (yippee!)
So I think my next chiro appointment is next friday - so lets keep hoping that my pelvis keeps holding!
