vette_devil

Hey, ladies! I'm 36wks4days & I have such unbelievable hip pain in both hips I can hardly walk. Does anyone have any suggestions to help alieviate this???
I sleep w/ a pillow between my legs & that doesn't seem to be helping. Baths only work while I'm in there but they hurt just as soon as I'm out. =(

Im 36w5d and my hips and back were killing me. I went to the chiropractor today as a last ditch effort to flip my breech baby. Come to find out, my spine was way out of alignment and everything was falling to my right side really bad. I feel really good only 5 hours after my appt! I scheduled a followup next week too. I hope you can find some relief soon mama!!

@Mindy061606 ...thanks for the suggestion- that's a great idea! Do you know if I can use my ususal Chiro since he specializes in sports-medicine? Or should I find one who specializes in pre-natal? Thank you!

I used my regular chiropractor. I just called ahead and asked if he saw pregnant women and he did! Im so amazed at the difference. I hope you can get in soon! Keep me updated

Mine started then....after a few days it would let up...then about once a week i starts up again. I am dialating slowly so try to think of it as a good thing and relax if you can. Its baby coming down the pipe.....

@Mindy061606 - I will, thank you so much!

@Mama_busy_bee -I hope you're right! I had an appt with my midwife today & she did say my girl was sitting quite a bit lower than she was last week, but she didn't check me because I had a pre-term labor scare at 33wks & was 1cm, so she doesn't want to irritate my uterus since I won't be full term until Sunday. I would be thrilled if she came as soon as I hit that mark!
