PGP- Pelvic Girdle Pain/ SPD- Symphysis Pubis Dysfunction

I had horrendous pgp during my pregnancy where i has to get up out of bed to be able to change positions at night, i could not roll over without severe pain,

I was told it would ease after birth

Its now 6 weeks, I still cant roll over in the night without pain, and if i sleep on my side in the morning my hips lock and the first few steps i take till they click are agony

I have suspected for years i might have hypermobility due to joint issues (especially my hips) and im wondering if pregnancy has made it worse

Has anyone been signed off work really early in their pregnancy before for pgp? I started developing it at 12 weeks. And went off at 13 weeks as it was too much, all I could do was lay down. Now I’m 21 weeks and it hasn’t got any better but I feel really guilty for continuing to be off. Especially when most people seem to go off 30 ish weeks with pgp!

I have been back and forth my whole life with physio and been told about pgp by one of the physio doctors the other week. What is the best thing to do as i am in absolute agony (with a high pain tolerance) i am struggling walking now i am 29 weeks pregnant, it hurts so much to sleep paracetamol doesnt touch the pain and i hate taking painkillers anyway but thats how i know something isnt right. I am looking at starting little swimming exercises to see if that helps but other than wearing my belt or the sling thing they gave me for bump and taking paracetamol what else can i do. I do also have a yoga ball that i have been using but its unbearable pain now and i am concerned

Had this pain since 19 weeks, now in my 31st week all i can say it's the most terrible thing if i knew it was gonna get this worse would have never gone forward with the pregnancy, there is absolutely no support from the midwives or physio it's literally useless! Soo fed up at this point

Hey guys So I’ve been struggling for ages but it is getting to the stage where I cry most days due to the pain

But I am the manager of a pub! I am worried that if it progresses much more there isn’t much I can do treatment wise but to go off sick which really isn’t an option!

Has anyone had it this bad and been in a physical job? How did you cope or what did they do?
