I've had really pretty bad hip pain for the last eight weeks or so (am 34.5 weeks now) and am a little concerned about how this is going to pan out when I actually go onto labour. I've not been diagnosed with SPD as I genuinely don't think it's that bad - I don't need crutches, I just get shooting pains in my hips when I move in a certain way or put weight on my leg funny.
I'm just a bit worried because last time I had to labour on my side, lying down because of being on the drip and concerns for the baby's HR. I'd seriously struggle to do that this time because lying on my side is agony right now. :(
I'm also worried about the actual pushing and whether that's going to cause problems for my hips if they're already sore?
