Amazingly sore hip of soreness

[Dragonfly Fi]

Hello all, i am 18 weeks pregnant...

My hip seems to have given up working though Moving around even for just short times is insanely painful and though i am trying to move it every day and have a small walk, its just getting worse, and worse and worse

Can anyone reccomend me any exercises i can do to help it a bit? or if i should be doing little or lots on it at the moment

problem is i am a photographer and in the next month i have both a wedding and a shoot in the woods to get to. I could really use the money so i dont want to not do them, but will i just make it loads worse by then?

Thanks, i am really quite freaked out by how painful it is getting

I'd speak to your midwife about a referral to physiotherapy! I've got mine next week for pelvic pain, worth asking!!

Yep get referred, sounds like SPD - they will probably measure you for a belt to go across your hips to 'hold' you together, if that doesnt help ask for some crutches if you think they might be of use - good luck, I had this with my last pregnancy and its not nice at all

Spoke to the doctor on the phone just now, hes booked me in for an emergency appointment this afternoon which is ace, hopefully will be able to sort something out quickly its SOOO sore, or at least tell me if movement will make it better/worse!

Thanks ladies xxx
