Morning ladies
Just after some advice
This is my second pregnancy. I'm nearly 33weeks. I have been pretty fit and active throughout but in the last week I have had this terrible pain in the top of my left buttock. I thought I had pulled something initially and kind of just if ignored it and pushed through which on reflection was stupid as I have obviously made it worse. I spent the whole weekend pretty redundant trying not to move and with paracetamol and hot water bottles and hot baths but it's not massively improved and I find walking so painful and stairs and getting in and out of bed. I told the midwife I thought I had PGP and she said she would refer me to a. Physio but likelihood of being seen before birth is super slim. Someone recommended a pre natal chiropractor privately so I have booked that but it's not for another week and a half! I work as a nanny looking after 3 kids and it's the summer holiday and I have a very demanding 3 year old at home. Has anyone had this pain and can say if it last until childbirth or did it ease off? Did it effect labour? Any tips on how to help it?
Sorry for the essay! Just desperate now!
