I’m 21 weeks pregnant and recently started experiencing pain around the back of my hips / back. It send kind of like sharp shooting pains through my hips. Any idea what it could be? Xx

I’m 21 weeks too and have been having the same, didn’t have this with my first so I called the midwife and she just said it was my body changing/stretching/loosening up xx

It’s sciatica! Does it go down your legs?

@Veronica no hun no leg pain xx

Ive been having this and been referred to physio as they think its PGP (pelvic girdle pain)

Call your midwife and ask for maternity physio referral! Sometimes you can self refer as well :) they’ll let you know x

I had this both times. Turns out I’m hypermobile, so the relaxin is a little too good at its job. The bones all shift, causing nerve and muscle pain. Acupuncture, physio, and stretching helps. x
