Back from Physio and it is SPD

[MissSara]

Just like a thought the physiotherapist has finally confirmed that the pain i am suffering with is due to SPD.
She has given me a pelvic support belt to wear when walking to ease the pain and i am booked in to attend a class every thursday with 5 other pregnant women where she will be giving advice on positions for sleeping, dealing with the stairs and how to cope with the pain now and during labour.

I am finally glad to have answers and hopefully after a few classes i might get a nights sleep without screaming out in pain....... oh the joys of being pregnant.

Sorry to hear it's SPD. At least you know now and hopefully the class and belt might help ease/deal with it.

This is my second pregnancy with SPD, so I can empathise with you.

At least you are getting support. The support here is rubbish. Good luck with fighting the demon!

I gave birth standing up. The physio last week said this is a good one for it, as lying on your back, legs akimbo will aggravate it.

She said before pushing, get the MW to measure how far appart your legs can comfortably go. Mine was measured as the same as a bottle of lilt last time lol....So, I certainly couldnt lie down.

On all fours is a good one too. Both also have gravity on its side. I found standing up was great. Was a back to back labour, but did not take long to push him out.
