Pubic bone & tail bone pain?

I'm 15 weeks pregnant with my first. My tail bone has really been bugging me for a few weeks now and now my pubic bone has been giving me trouble as well. Everyone that I know who I've talked to about it thinks I'm crazy lol but it's absolutely horrible when they both hurt at the same time. A nurse I talked to said a belly band would help with support but I don't honestly know. Has anyone else experienced this? What did you do?

My tailbone too! My hips hurt as well. It really started to hurt when I was sixteen Weeks. I know that their is a hormone that relaxes our hip joints to get ready for child birth. I heard there would be pain from the relaxing. I just associated it with that because our tailbone is connected to that area. Your pelvic bone is also connected to that area to so it sounds logical it would hurt. A belly band sounds life a great idea because it will support those bones and hold them in place. I'm definitely going to get one and try it out. Much luck!
