Q: Excruciating pelvic pain at 17 weeks

Hi, I am 17weeks pregnant toady and instead of enjoying this pregnancy, I have been distraught as I am struggling with some terrible pain in my pelvis. Walking, getting into the car, getting dressed, rolling over in bed really hurts and the pain is unbearable. I have tried yoga for pregnant women and pain medication and they both don't seem to alleviate the pain. My next doctors appointment is 2 weeks from now. Do you have any suggestions on what I can do to get some relief or am I doing something wrong that might hurt my baby? I don't want to panic if these symptoms are considered "normal"...

I had that at 17 weeks and was taken to the ER by ambulance. I was in so much pain, I got to the hospital and they ran some tests, did an ultrasound, the baby was perfect. They gave me some pain relief (panadol) and the pain went away to this day no idea what is was or what caused it but I've never had it back. I'm now 30+w
Take Care and get checked out xx

I had the worst pain in my pregnancy around 16 weeks. My hips and my back were in absolutely horrible pain. It went away after a couple weeks though, and my back pain just came back a few weeks ago(38w2d right now), but it's not nearly as bad as it was during that time! My guess is that it will subside and all you can really do is rest right now, when you can;)

Could be that the baby is sitting low. I know for me this time around he was low most of this pregnancy. You may want to get a belly supporter. Not much can be done about the pain unfortunately, but it may help.
