Groin pain

Has anyone else experienced this, I woke up today fine but had to go to work, after an hour or so of walking around etc I started getting pain in my groin, i only feel the pain when standing or walking, if I am sat down it goes, and it’s worse when I first stand up too… I’m wondering if it is because the baby has changed position or something? (I’m 24 weeks today)

Im getting groin pain when walking particularly up stairs where my legs are bending higher if that makes sense. Even sitting on bed and bringing legs up to put socks on for example hours a lot at the moment. I'm 21 weeks.

hopefully it eases off soon! Yeah it's not fun at all. Especially as I have a bath to climb over to shower 😅. Hopefully it's just baby growing causing the pain but I've no real answers

I've had groin pain for a few weeks now, mainly on the right hand side, exactly as you describe ok when sat down but worst when first stand up and move then there the whole time when walking x

Hey, is it like a cramp? I sometimes get it walking and it’s like I’ve jolted something. Takes my breath away it’s that painful

Look up pelvic girdle pain, and see a physical therapist! You could have a weak pelvic floor, or SI joint dysfunction causing your pelvis to be out of alignment. Either way I would see a physical therapist, you can get a referral from your OB. It helps a lot!

I have it, it gets worse after sitting for long periods then getting up to walk. Try not sit for more than 30 minutes at a time, jeep active and walk as much as you can. You can always look up exercises to strengthen your core, pelvic floor etc.

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

I have a feeling like I might get attacked from this but I’m going to say it anyways. incognito 🥸 GLP1s being mainstream for regular people who are NOT diabetic or morbidly obese is bad for so many reasons 💉💉💉

Side affects, long term dependency, supply shortages and costs, regaining the weight back as soon as you get off them.. all that ASIDE how do people not see just from a zoomed out perspective how crazy it is. I can’t imagine being someone facing food insecurity in an underdeveloped country and watching westerners give themselves daily jabs so they can lose weight while still eating a calorie surplus/ crappy foods. It’s giving hunger games when district 12 Katniss finds out at the party at the capital that people eat and then take a pill to make themselves sick so they can 🤮 and eat some more. These ads running ozempic everywhere are disgusting, and then getting amazing athletes like Serena Williams to push them talking bout “i’ve never been healthier” girl you were an OLYMPIC athlete wym??

Hey ladies when did you ditch the compression socks and how mobile were you when you did? I’m so done with them! 6 weeks tomorrow since the op and im walking around the house doing jobs and baby care but not really out and about yet (the odd day I am) is it safe to ditch the socks?

Getting pregnant after c section

When did you get pregnant again after a c section? Our plan was always to have 2 under 2 but that is now out the window because I had an emergency section. I know they say 18 months and we will be sticking to it (as much as I don’t want to) but I’m curious how quickly you got pregnant after your section?

Leaving baby for date night

How old was your baby the first time you left them for a night alone with your partner or friends? How long did you leave them for and who did you leave them with?
