Pelvic &back pain
Im 16 weeks and have the worst back pain ever. I struggke to get around an look pretty big for 16wks too. Also a stinging pain across my pelvic area when i walk. Anyone else experiencing same..midwife has referred me to physio but said it could take weeks
Aw thankyou for getting back to me..i had pelvc girdle pain with my 2nd child 4 years ago but it was no where near this bad. I feel that if im like this at week16 i wont be able to walk when im closer do due date! In gna give pysio a week ab then call in to see my gp. How many weeks are you??
Chiroprator! I swear by it. I tried EVERYTHING! Essential oils to pain meds, i was getting massages every week and taking an epson salt bath evey night and nothing helped. So i decided to try chiro care and it has been life changing! I was in so much pain to sit, to sleep, to walk. My leg would go numb and my hips hurt so bad. I thought it was sciatic nerve pain and so fid my obgyn but turns out i had a tilted pelvis which was fixed with chiro care. It is worth a try!
Oh u poor thing i hope the rest of pregnancy whats left of it goes well for you. The struggle for me is getting worse especially when doing households chores.

Hey I'm 30 +6 and I've been in pain since about 15 -16 weeks this pregnancy. I've been getting physio once every one to two weeks.
I didn't have until the end of my fist pregnancy. It's much worse this time around .
My doctor wanted me to finish work at few weeks ago . I'm trying to hold out until Christmas.

Hello,
It's sound like pelvic girdle pain. I suffer from this as well. It's very sore and uncomfortable. I've been getting physio and it helps. It won't take the pain away but it will manage it.
I had it with my first pregnancy and have it much worse now on my second. I have to use crutches. Sleeping is difficult.
If I were you in would tell my doctor I cannot wait a few weeks for an appointment. Insist on one ASAP. The longer you wait the more pain you will be in.
Also get a gym ball this helps me. The physio can show you some exercises you can do while sitting on it. I also use a tennis ball . I roll it along my lower back against a wall. If I feel a pain I stop rolling it and just lean into it until the pain lessens. I was told to do this by the physio. Hot baths and hot water bottles also but don't put the bottle on your bump. I hope this helps.
I hope you feel better soon
