cakester, thanks hun, im not hugely worried, i had SPD suspicions but ive never had it before so i didnt know it felt like. i have a hospy app on thursday so will speak to my ob then. i'd go in but its sooo dang far away!!!
Breeze hun, ur a gem, posting while you're on the move! its come on all of a sudden,last week i was fine and now this week im in agony and getting worse. will make an appointment with the physio asap. thanks hun
Kaz and lilas, thanks girls, glad to know im not just being a whinger! its really not nice
Skye- I would suss it out at your appointment on Thursday! I have Pelvic Instability which is apparently pretty much the same as SPD, and it sounds like it could be that! It could also just be normal pregnancy pain/ligament pain as bubs sitting on a nerve or something. Bubs should weigh about 2kilos now so understandable to experience some pain. They say pelvic instability/SPD only gets worse, but mine and another girl I know have found the opposite, it's gotten better towards the end, fingers crossed! Ket us know how you get on xxx
Aww honey It sure does sound a lot like SPD to me, but don't be surprised if your OB knows stuff all about it, I've found most OB's and even midwives are a bit clueless about the condition - either a physio or a chiro will be your best friend at this point. Mine is just starting to kick in now, I found in most of my pregnancies that to roll over in bed I have to be supporting both sides of my hips and I kinda flip myself over - like a whale would I imagine!! I've also been known to wake DH up and ask him to roll me over so I can support my pelvis while doing so. Definitely no standing on one leg, keep your knees together as much as you can and support your pelvis with a belt of some type. And ice it of a night time
thanks girls, tried a few local physio's but everythings closed, i assume till tuesday just did my last solo grocery shop, could barely push the trolley to the car in the end....this is so much fun
