Hiya,
I have severe SPD & Sacroiliac joint dysfunction, so my pelvis is pretty much shot.
It's triggered for me as I have hypermobility syndrome in my hips.
I am currently on crutches and cocodamol 30/500MG since 16 weeks. I wear my pelvic support belt whenever walking. Use the pillow between my knees in bed, I do all they told me to.
The physio didn't give me exercises this time as they were excruciatinglypainful in last pregnancy and they wanted to avoid heightening my pain. So sent me away with the crutches again.
I am really starting to struggle just sitting in work now, lifting my 2 year old toddler in/out the car/bath etc is agonising.
There are many occasions when I have to go upstairs on my bum to stop my pelvis moving too much.
As I have been on the 30/500MG dose for so long (I normally take it for my hips when not pregnant after walks etc) it doesn't seem to be making any difference now, its like I am taking smarties or some sort of placebo!
I'm not sure I can take anything stronger. I see the consultant again 16th Sept where I will be a day shy of 30 weeks to review my symptoms. Hoping for some sort of relief.
Last pregnancy I was induced early as the pain was so bad, I am kind of hoping that will happen again this time.
Anyone else suffering and want to join in on this thread? x
