Pelvic Pain at 33 w

[hannahpalindrome]

This is my first pregnancy, so my body's changing a lot for me. I am handling it very well, but one issue I've been having that's been a lot of trouble is pain in the leg joints of my hips and at the back of my pelvis as well. It hurts just to stand, walk or lift my leg to move. I have heard that your hips start to separate and prepare for birth, but I didn't think it was this bad. Is or has anyone experienced pain like this? If so, is it normal or should I talk to my doctor? I just want relief.

I get these pains, particularly early in the morning trying to roll out of bed... and again in the arvo trying to get of the couch...
Its a weird pain in hips/groin/back. I was told pelvic girdle pain. Very common and may sadly increase until baby is born :(

Bring on the last 6weeks. I feel your pain!
