Oh hun, you're not horrible. I'm so glad you've posted this thread. I'm 33 weeks and just want this baby out now (and have for a while) and its nice to know I'm not the only one.

I have had some pretty big pain issues too and I was also brushed off. Eventually I nagged them into sending me to a physiotherapist but she was useless and it didn't help and I couldn't afford to pay to see someone. In the end I went and got a massage and it helped for a little while but for the most part the biggest relief I've had has been just floating in water. Only prob is that it makes me more sore before I feel better I have done a few water aerobics classes for pregnant women run by a physiotherapist and they have helped a bit, but again it gets worse before it gets better and sometimes its really quite unbearable.

As much as it sucks asking for help (I'm the same as you) I've now told my DH that he has to load and unload the dishwasher and also take washing out of the washing machine because I have found that bending down to do those things really sets my hip pain off.

So... other than the water and the washing/dishwasher thing I don't have much more to add but Tashy's advice definitely sounds like good advice. GL
