Bum pain 😫

[Freixene]

Well, it’s probably my lower back but it feels so deep - right at the top of my bum crack.
I’m 24 weeks and it’s just getting worse- especially when I’ve been sat down for a while and stand up (work and meeting room chairs are the worst!!)
Is it just ANOTHER pregnancy symptom to put up with or is there a miracle cure?!

Sounds like this could be your tail bone/coccyx especially if the pain is worst when standing after sitting for a while. I have a lingering problem with this offer the birth of DD but it got so much worse in pregnancy.

I got a coccyx cushion for working from home (search on Amazon), it has a little cut out at the back to relieve the pressure.

At work try to raise the seat so your hips are higher than your knees and lean forwards in your chair instead of slumping back. Basically think about taking the pressure off your tailbone.

omg I had this in both pregnancies but it was so much worse the 2nd time round. I actually think I must have broken my coccyx during my speedy and mainly car based labour with my 1st.

It got so bad in my 2nd pregnancy that I couldn't actually sit down without lying on my side for a whole week. that was insane but cured by an osteopath in 5 minutes. honestly they work magic. book in to see one ASAP.

Do you have piles? I have piles. It's making me unhappy, it's so bad I can't sleep from the discomfort. Or constipation might cause the pain you're describing? I have that too atm (26/27w pg).

I hate being pregnant!! (Obviously it's worth it to get a baby!)
