Help! Sacroiliac joint pain in pregnancy

[Annabel2110]

Has anyone else suffered with bad sacroiliac joint pain during pregnancy and have any tips that can help relieve it?

Do maternity support bands actually work?

Is there anything else I can use?

Hi, I suffered with this first pregnancy. I found Pilates, walking and a lot of time spent sitting on the ball helped! And as little time as possible sat hunched over a desk. If you do have a desk job, really important your chair is adjusted properly. Keeping knees below the hips helped for me and I used to use my ball instead of a chair when wfh. It did unfortunately get worse for me after birth so I ended up seeing a physio for free on the NHS which helped. I’m now pregnant again and touch wood it’s not reoccurred this time around.
