i almost have tears as i type! i have had pain in my leg joints/pelvis for most of this pregnancy. about 6 weeks ago it was worse than it had been, but today i can barely walk. the right side is worse than the left, but still painful.

i asked one of the midwives at the birth centre about it, i remember having pain in the last couple of weeks of my last pregnancy, so i was concerned as to why i was feeling it already. she said its just my ligaments loosening up ready for birth, and that i could see an osteopath if it was too bad. i told her it wasnt that bad, just a little uncomfy.

last week when i saw the doctor at the birth centre, i mentioned it again and said it had gotten worse, she said its 'just one of those things that go with being pregnant' i was like, um ok so i just have to live with it? she said basically yes.

is this right?? should i see an osteopath? (i dont even know what they do!) has anyone else suffered like this? its really horrible. i cant stand for too long, and its worse when ive been sitting then stand. im also finding when i drive, it aches when i move my foot from the accelerator to teh brake pedal

i gave work 2 weeks notice as of last sunday, as im finding everything too difficult (take away shop & big belly dont mix too well!) but the way im feeling today, i dont know if i will last till next sunday! (i work wed & thurs 4-8.30pm, and sat & sun 4-8.30pm)
