I had the same pain on my tailbone for about 4 days I went Monday for my regular visit and spoke to my ob about it. He looked at it and it was swollen to the size of a golf ball. I had what they call a pilonidal cyst. I had to go immediately to see a specialist that day. He lanced it on Monday and I have been in pain since then. I cannot sit,and its also painful to lay down. I'm on an antibiotic but the only pain meds I can take is Tylenol. I'm 32w 3d and it had swollen again to the size of a golf ball. I have to go back in the morning to have it looked at. My DD is also on my sciatic nerve which doubles the pain. Not trying to scare you but I would mention it to my ob. Could be potentially dangerous for baby. Im scared to death that it has gotten infected, but I hope not.
It will stop once you have your baby
My tailbone has ached, but its because I wasn't sitting properly due to sciatica. I was putting to much pressure on it... I hope yours goes away fast, bc your right, no matter how you sit/, its uncomfortable
You're hips may be separated which causes pain in the whole area. I went through that with my second. Lived with it for roughly 8 weeks. Good luck with your induction.
Im 37w. And 4days. Its a really bad pain. I see my doc in the morning. Ill ask. But im getting induced on fri. It hurts so bad iv been crying
I have the same thing. With my first pregnancy they said because of the pressure of hips and your changing body...my hips were unaligned...so it hurts at the tail bone. I am having it again this pregnancy. Prob just yours unaligned too
If it is just the position of the baby lying on your side might relieve some of the pressure.
I have had that sciatica pain but not on my tail bone. Its been through my back,butt cheek & legs
From personal experience if you also have have pain in your leg(s) it could be sciatica, or if you've fallen possibly a bruised or broken coxyx. If the pain continues I would see a doctor. In the mean time sometimes a warm bath/shower or heating pad might help. Feel better
I don't have pain in my tail bone but I do have pressure in my vagina & rectum. Its just the baby positioning. How are along are you? I'm 37w 5d
Anyone else feel this, or heard of it
