    I used the SRC pregnancy shorts and a velcro belt during my third pregnancy, until I got onto a great chiro who does a lot of work with pregnant women. She was the only person who was able to relieve the pelvic instability/back pain. I saw her weekly from 30 weeks til bubs was born. I then wore SRC recovery shorts. They're pretty expensive but they do sell well on ebay.

    I do see a chiropractor, but it didn't seem to help all that much. Physio might be an option, I guess. I've never seen a physiotherapist before, but I'll maybe look into that if it gets bad again.
    I'll see about those SRC shorts/leggings. I also have varicose veins, so I was a little nervous about getting something that might constrict on my upper legs - don't want anything making those worse! I don't think I've seen them for sale anywhere here (Canada) but I'll check e-bay. Thanks for the suggestions!

    Src shorts are GOOD for varicose veins! I have a rather horrible large one in an *ahem* intimate lady area and its the main reason I bought them last time. I think they sell to the US so could likely get to Canada also??
