Pelvic pain/hip pain is unfortunately something that occurs during pregnancies. The pregnancy hormones loosen the ligaments around the pelvic joints to enable the baby to pass through the birth canal during delivery.

The pain comes from the loosened joints moving more than normal, thus causing inflammation and cramping in the muscles and occasonally disturbing the alignment of the bones in the joints. How much these ligaments loosen and how much pain this give is individual. Most...

Hello Amarie,

Welcome to Friends....
Like you I had no problems during my 1st (and consequently only) pregnancy. But IF I did, I would certianly would discuss this with my doc at length. You shouldn't have to "Endure" anything if you don't think it is normal.....and we are, after all, the foremost authority on our bodies, eh?
I imagine others here will have more info to give you,
Virginia

Hello!
I'm currently in the 27th week of my 2nd pregnancy, and I'm from America. Since I was about 4 months along or so I've been having a lot of chronic pain in my hips, lower abdomen, and groin. For the most part it felt like pulled muscles, but as time passed it never got better. If anything, it has just been getting worse. If I move in ANY way that forces me to move my hips then it's extremely painful. Most of the time I cannot stand up or walk without someone helping...

Hi Girls,

I hope you don't mind me joining you all. Mosken, I live in Norway too (in Oslo) however I am not from here.

Lori, I can relate to a good bit of your story although it did not start with me till about week 30 or so and was just swollen feet no real pain and at that time she suggested jogging shoes. From there it on it progressed very rapidly and four weeks later (during holy week) it was clearly full blown SPD and very sever from. She did not have enough time...

I have had chronic hip pain since 2005. In 1997 at age 24, my Dr. induced delivery a little early b/c he was concerned about the size of my son and my small pelvis. had a normal vaginal delivery. I had a normal delivery, until the very last push when I delivered my son's shoulders. Then we heard a loud 'pop', which the doctor thought was my son's clavicle.... at first. I had an epidural, so I didn't feel anything. He told me I had separated, 'popped apart' at the...

Hi all! I am glad to have come across this forum. There is lots of great information here!

I am currently on pregnancy #3, 7 weeks, and had debilitating pain yesterday (which caused me to search for info today). While pregnant with my second son in 2006, I had a lot of discomfort on my left side, lower abdomen. Dr attributed this to round ligament pain. The day I delivered him I woke up and could not walk. I called the dr and they brought me in to the hospital, as I was 1 day...

Hi
Has anybody else only had pain postnatally? I had my baby nearly 5 months ago and developed SPD immediately post natally. I was agony in the beginning but has now got to a stage where it is not improving any further. I can walk but experience lots of pain afterwards. Walking was my main form of exercise before getting pregnant so I am finding it very distressing. I am having physio and have also pained to see a chiropractor which after 5 sessions made no difference, although she...

I'm new here, so HI everyone..

I've noticed that SPD seems to affect more women than men, but I guess I'm the minority..

I'm a 49 year old male who developed Symphysis Pubis (congenital) pain about 5 years ago, and so my odyssey began.

I've been thru the physical therapy, steroid injections (which caused my potassium to drop putting me in the CCU), iontophores with lidocane which did nothing, and many many more procedures that have yielded no...

A very big welcome to the Board.

I am jilly and I have CFS, so am not too clued up on this particular problem.

But I do know that pain can be referred from one area to another.

Just a thought. You seem to have tried just about everything, I wonder if you have considered seeing a chiropracter. They seem good at correcting imbalances in the body. Sometimes, it can be...

I suffer from chronic back pain after several failed surgeries.

I'm interested because, I do know that I have the Symphysis Pubis Disfunction, sacroiliac joint dysfunction, etc., due to recent x-rays. The x-rays shows my hip as normal however . I do have 2 herniated discs in my lumbar spine. I'm just trying to figure out (becaseu so far no doctor has been able to) WHAT is causing this hip pain!!! Nothing I do...

Hi, guys!

I found this group and the two threads pertaining to SPD while searching for new information/treatment options. Unfortunately, it seems the U.S. is still in the dark. My ob/gyn knew nothing four years ago when I first showed her what I found online, and still knows nothing about it other than what I showed her four years ago as far as I can tell. She sent me to an ortho surgeon when I kept complaining about the pain months after my son was born. He showed me the...
