Hi everyone! Its been awhile since ive
been here, but I have a new question...I
am now 30 weeks (wow!) and this this is my
first pregnancy therefore I have so many
questions. But, my situation now is, I
started getting really bad pelvic pains.
Not braxton hicks, not sciatic nerve, but
actual, well, bone pain. It feels like
my vagina is trying to rip apart! It
hurts when I stand up, sit down, roll
over, cough, walk...Etc.... I have gone
through all of my pregnancy books, but
nothing seems to cover this. I guess I
just want to know if anyone else has had
this, and if it will ever go away! Thanx!

i have had this for weeks now. Im 38 wks
tomorrow. Its "normal". Right now your
body is producing a hormone that is
softening up your pelvic bones for them to
seperate. It very painful to some women.
Like me! But its very common! Mine
actually sound like im popping my fingers
when I get up of the morning!

This happened to me as well. At times it
was excruciating! My doctor suggested
that I try one of those belly supports.
It helped a little but really not that
much. I also tried not to lift my 2 year
old as much, which became next to
impossible anyway. I think it is just
one of those things we have to deal with.
I noticed that the longer I sat down the
worse it felt when I got up. So just
hang in there and try to figure out what
helps for you. Good luck!
