Hip and leg pain.

In 17w and lately been getting alot of hip and leg pain. I'm not big in fact still pretty small. Is this normal? Is there anything I can do to ease the pain?

Think with pelvic girdle pain in comes and goes, at the times baby is having a growth spurt it will hurt more and other times it's not so apparent, better to get it sorted while your baby is still small and growing. Hope it goes ok tomorrow at the docs, hut get a gym ball anyway for best posture, labour and weight loss excise after :-) good luck with everything. X

Hi I'd go to the doctor u had this with my first and now with this one, it sounds like pelvic girdle pain, it's to do with ligiments during pregnancy, can become worse the further along you go. It's treated by physio and normal pain killers. I would also recommend getting a gym ball anyway, they are so comfy. Hope your not in too much pain.
