Grr pain in legs & bum when trying to sleep!

[Ladylove]

Sounds like pubic/pelvic/sciattia type pain for sure. I get it in the dimples at the top of my bottom/base of my spine and actually in my groin. The other night I went to sleep with a heat pack between my legs!

My OB said its a combo of loose ligaments and bones, which makes them more prone to a strain, and the pressure of bubs growing bigger and pushing downwards.

I got something like this every night from about week 14. The only thing I could come up with to ease the pain and get some sleep was to heat up wheat bags in the night and place on my thigh area. Some nights I would be up several times to re-heat the bags. It did ease the pain for me and I slept whilst the bag was still warm.

The sleepless nights start pre-bubba.
