I'm already experiencing the same thing PZ along with the back rib pain that didn't happen until much later with DD. I went to a preg physio with DD and got a belt the was wider at the back and had velcro at the front which i'm using already. It definitely helps. I had terrible SPD last pregnancy and am really hoping it doesn't get that bad again. Try sleeping with your belly on a pillow at night, if I don't have the pillow I wake in the night with really sore hips. Massage around your hips and groin/pelvic area too. Hope it eases for you. And remember to be careful when going upstairs, getting in and out of bed/car etc.
Hi alls...jumping in!...i think that i had that with my last pregnancy. I found that if i sat for long periods of time on couch or when i got up in the morning i found that i had to do it soooooo slowly and then would not be able to move for ages ( i was like my little oldies that i used to look after ) and i would have soo much pain in my hips, it seriously took me 5 mins or so to get moving first thing in the morning. It went away after i had my DS but i don't remember when!
I think it is coming back currently 14 wks..."fit to deliver" Frangipani Lou you mentioned that what kind of things do they do during this class? Sounds interesting..
I saw a physio for the pain with DS1 and DS2 and not much really changed, pain wise. So with DD's pregnancy this year, my doula got me onto a fantastic chiro who got my pelvis in allignment and I had no pain after I started seeing her (around 30 weeks onwards). She said that the way the baby sits and the weight etc can pull the ligaments which are attached between the uterus and the pelvis. I can't believe I didn't get onto it earlier, as it made such a massive difference to how I felt during my third pregnancy. I hadn't seen a chiro before that and would highly recommend one now.
