Sore sore SORRRRE pelvic bones!!!
Holy crap! This did NOT happen with my first child. It started last week, I'm 33 weeks today. It feels like someone put me on a medeviel torture rack and tried to dismember my legs. From what I've read its my pelvic bones moving to get ready for delivery. I've been taking Tylenol put it still hurts. Getting off the couch and out of bed kills. I go to the doc Thurs but I doubt he can do much since it seems to be a normal pain but damn hurry up baby! Please tell me someone else is feeling my pain. I feel like a freak cuz I felt nothing like this with my daughter.

The reason you get it with your second ans not your first is because the 1st time around everythings nice and tight and has never been streched so it holds everything on place better, but this time around its so much easier for everything to lousen up.
my son is 5 years old now, so its not like my body hasnt had time to bounce back.
Anyways I figure if all this pain is going to help my labor and delivery more, then hey its worth it, but it really hurts and sucks to have to be in so much pain only to have that pain greatly intensified by l&d! Of course its always worth it in the end
good luck!
@summergirl22 With me it started in my tailbone around 26 weeks and traveled frontward. My daughters 6 so I get what you mean about bounce back. It sure does suck but Just another thing I have to look forward to being over soon I guess.
You should try some of these things that helped a little for me... A pillow between the knees while laying down is a must, if ur on ur side, if ur on ur back I like to put the pillow under my knees instead of between, also if you change positions, try to keep both legs together while turning/getting up, you know like a mermaid.. Try to rest as much as you can, the less you have to do the better, but take your time doing things, like slowly getting up and slowly walking taking smaller steps, hopefully you dont have to climb stairs everyday! Anyways as im sure you know, nothing really helps the pain
im so ready to finally give birth! Im almost there but it still seems so far away!
Speciallt when I lay down and switch sides or when I fast walk !
@I_anaya tylenol doesnt help anyways, but thats interesting that ur doc told you no tylenol during the last 2 months? I have never herd that! As far as I know tylenol is safe all throughout pregnancy. the only time I take tylenol is if I have a really bad headache, I do take benadryl for sleep when I need it, matter of fact I took it last night, ive been so restless lately, thinking of the babies arivial and the things I still need to get done, agh it would keep me up all night some nights, im so thankful benadryl is okay to take
