Having lots of pain from a tailbone injury...wondering if it will effect labor?

Babyluv

I busted my tailbone a few years ago. I've always had problems with it since then...it goes out a lot. Throughout my pregnancy I've been having so much pain because it keeps going out and I can't get it to pop back. I was wondering if anyone else has had a similar situation. I'm just really worried that something will happen when I'm giving birth?! Freaks me out that it will cause more pain or re-break.

I Doubt it will re break. But it's probably going to cause some dis comfort. The baby pushes against your lower back as it's coming through the birth canal. And the muscles in your body are relaxing in order to let the baby through. Part of why it's hurting now. Those muscles aren't tight and holding it so its got room to move.
