Preg with no 3 and I am 34wks now. I am in alot of pain when walking, then if I have been doing a lot (ds nearly 3 and dd 18mo so not much choice about that!), then sit down for longer than about 5 mins, when I get up it is really painful to walk.
Night time is the worst and rolling over takes an age and often involves tears .
The pain is worst between my pubic bones but is also in my hips and in my lower back.
Had midwife appt and she said it didnt sound like spd as I got it when I had been resting and you only get spd when you have been on your feet a long time and there is pressure from the babies head. She also said that I wouldnt get it at night. I did tell her that I had it all the time but she just focused on the night and after resting pain. Only thing she said was to take paracetamol, which is not much use.
I was wondering just how bad the pain can get from what she called ligament pain. It feels too bad to just be a case of 'tough luck, you are preg, deal with it' to me.
In my previous preg I have had aches and pains but nothing that stops me dead in my tracks or makes me cry. WOuld appreciate anyone elses experiences.
