Hi guys,

Just a quick question for you all.

A bit of background first: I'll be 16wks on monday, it's my 8th pregnancy, but only the second to make it past 8wks. I had a lot of hip/pelvic and lower back problems abd pain with my DS, and it's looking like it's going to be the same or at least very similar this time round pain-wise.

The last couple of days I've been having some really horrible pains go right through my pelvis/cervix area. Tonight it is much worse, I can hardly walk at all without being in pain (I've been doing the "bowling ball between the legs" walk all evening so far).

Anyone have any idea what it could be? I have enough pain and problems to deal with as it is without something else added to the mix, but I'd prefer to have an idea of what is going on right now.

I'm not due to see the midwife again for another 3 weeks either, so there;s not going to be much help from that department right now - plus the consultant's/midwife's office is closed over the weekend and the midwive's on the ward at the hospy don't deal with anyone under 20wks, so I'm basically on my own and relying on you guys right now.

AndI don't want to resort to googling because that will just get me more worked up lol.

All help would be greatly appreciated!
