Tailbone Pain

by zippgirls, Jan 24, 2007 12:00AM
I am 32 weeks and 5 days with 2nd child. Carrying much lower with this one.
With in the past week I have had a pain in my hips at night but now it has moved to my tailbone and is constant.
I can't sit, stand, lie down or walk with out feeling some kind of pain.
I know that it is due to my ligaments getting loose and ready for child birth.
I was wondering what has anyone else done to try to help ease this pain?
I have tried the pillows between your legs and behind you and under your belly at night...nothign works. Corn haeting bag and warm bath do nothing either.
Don't know how I am going to deal with this for the rest of  the pregnacy????
It gets worse and worse everyday!!!!!!!!!!
I go to my doc. tomarrow thank goodness!

It is horrible I know. I broke my tailbone a couple of  years ago and just had a baby in Sept.  I had to buy a donut. It is a cushion with a hole in the middle to sit your bottom on.  I still have tailbone pain when I sit on hard stools, seats for too long.  Good Luck!
