Just wondering a few things about SPD if anyone has had it.
Symptoms are feeling like someone kicked me in the touche (funny but not!)
Alot of pain when i roll over in bed (same region)
Pain when i stand on one leg when putting on pants etc.
Is it ok to keep excercising (water aerobics, lots a walking and golf) will it make it worse i guess is the main thing? It does ache when i walk espicially up hills but i wondered if its a ligment thing if it will help strengthen it if i keep excercising.
It looks like a may have a CS for other reasons but if i decide to have natural birth does it effect that, does it make it more painful?
Will it get worse or does the pain level generally stay at how it starts off (i am nearly 7 monthes)?
Sorry for all the questions but would love some info and i guess to know if it is SPD or something else. I read that SPD is most painful when you open your legs but i dont seem to have that problem.
Thanks
If it just happens on the right side it could be sciatic pain. I have had it on and off for many years and it flared up again during my pregnancy and it was exactly as you described it. Mine didn't get any worse as I got further along, but I do still do get pain from it from time to time. If it's both sides or on the left it's probably something else related to the pregnancy, but that would be a good thing cos at least when you are no longer pregnant you wouldn't get it again (unlike sciatica).

Thanks for the reply, i have had sciatica as i have scolosis which seems to trigger it, should have been abit clearer its actually between my legs in my pubic bone region So im pretty sure its not sciatica. I do agree though hopefully whatever this is relates to pregnancy, sciatica is agony !
I didn't realise what it was - and everything you say you are experiencing I had.
After Miss m was born I couldn't even walk. My SPD was so bad that my hip had slipped out of joint and rotated the wrong way - took a lot of physio to get me to a stage now that I can walk without holding on to walls for support, or swearing my head off cos it hurt so much, and I can roll over in bed now without supporting my hips first, AND I can bend over and touch my toes without pain!!!!!
You don't want it getting to the stage that you can't do anything for yourself - so go get checked out now.
Oh and I have sciatic pain too - and its SOO not the same feeling as SPD.
I am feeling similar to you! It started about a week ago - it feels like my pubic bone/groin is aching. Hurts when I walk, but not agonising, although it slows me down. I'm sitting now, and it's not hurting, just when I move about. Is that what yours is like?
