Sore and tender pelvic region

Almost 31 weeks along, and I just started experiencing tenderness and generously soreness in my entire pelvic region, especially what feels like deep in my vaginal area (the birth canal). No Braxton Hicks yet, and no worries that I'm headed into premature labor, just in consistent pain/discomfort. Pretty sure it's just my body prepping for birth, but not what I was expecting by far!

Anyone else in the same boat?

I'm having a similar pain (I think). My vagina feels so achy and sore. Almost like I've had a ton of sex back to back. I'm sorry if that's too graphic, I'm just wondering if that's what you all are feeling too or should I be concerned? I'm 32 weeks

I tried to make an appt with my midwife, but the nurse said she didn't think it was a concern and to wait until my next scheduled appt :-/

Im 30 weeks - and have had pain for the kast month in pelvic / vagina area. It hurts to walk or turn over in bed. I was diagnosed with SPD and have been off work ever since. Some pain is normal but if its very painful and constant go to your gp as you may have spd.

Yup, feels like you've had lots of really intense sex recently, lol. That's what I've been experiencing. I figured, and it sounds as though I'm right, that this is just the body prepping for labor.
