I've had a relatively problem-free pregnancy so far, no morning sickness, no pains and very little aches.

I'm getting a big shock to day coz god, whatever she's doing to my pelvic region is unbearable! I tried to walk to the shop on my lunch and god i thought something was going to snap. I've come back to work to sit down because its the only thing that eases the pain a bit.

Any ideas what she's doing down there!?

Not sure hun, is it like a muscular pain?

My doctor told me I have SPD (i dont really believe him, but you know) and the only way I can describe that is feeling like my pelvis bit is going to snap in half or seperate.... maybe have a word with your doctor?

It might just be that your LO is lying in a strange place and putting different pressure on different places.

Hope it gets better anyway

It's not a muscle pain, if anything, it's like a wee pain i guess.

I feel like i wonna push it out but theres nothing there. it hurts right where my pubic bone is so i'm guessing she's squashing something in there. I walked back to work holding the bottom of my belly in coz it was so painful. I bet i look like a right tit

Maybe baby has moved position and is putting a lot of pressure on your bladder?

I felt the same way at 31 weeks, but my LO shifted a week later and it is much better. It is just a painful pressure at the point where the pubic bones meet. Hopefully your LO will shift as well and give you some relief.

Hope she moves to a more comfy position soon hun x

I have also found that just getting on my hands and knees helps take off some of that pressure.

I don't know what this could be, but I hope you feel better soon. It's not easy trying to work and do everyday tasks when you are uncomfortable. Like the other poster said, maybe the LO is laying in a strange position.

My LO has been up in my rib cage a lot and it makes it hard to sit at my desk and work. While being up in my rib cage, he is kicking me down below, almost like he is laying diagonally. Weird... Poor thing, I push on something around my rib cage to move him down, it's probably his head. I hope it doesn't hurt him, but he's hurting me.

I have felt like this for a while now. i have good days and bad days and when my midwife told me his head was way down there it made sense that he is squishing my bladder. It is like I have an infection and need to pee desperately as soon as i stand up off the toilet. It can be agony sometimes. I too waddle around trying to lift my tummy up!

Best thing for it i find tho is swimming, the weight just lifts off and if you bounce around for long enough he changes position. Sometimes he stays that way, sometimes he goes straight back - but the releif whilst you are in the pool is amazing!

The hands and knees thing definately does help! I hope it isn't SPD, doesn't sound too much like it, but then it wouldn't hurt to ask a doctor if it continues.
