Help please!

Hi, just looking for some advice. Been suffering with back pain and pelvic girdle throughout pregnancy, and now entered third trimester and it’s gone up another notch and pretty unbearable! Think triggered from a 3 hour drive and back the next day for a work event earlier this week 😞
Has anyone got any quick help tips they found worked well?

The only thing that helped me was resting and pregnancy massages. Hope you feel better soon.

I was hospitalised for this and delivered at 37 weeks on the dot. Because it was so bad it caused severe medical insomnia. They gave me oral morphine and dihydrocodeine. Barely helped. But one thing that did help was diclofenac suppositories ! Ask about them x

I suffered from pelvic girdle pain and sciatica of my pregnancy. The only thing I really had was a belt that I had to wear from physio (which my midwife referred me for) although this only helped until about 30 weeks. Unfortunately I had to go off work at 30 weeks due to the pain. When I got to 37 weeks I did use a tense machine and that seemed to help a bit.

Does this look like early labour?

I’m 40+4 and this morning I’ve started getting what feels like contractions. It’s where my pelvic area is and they feel like some sharp pulling which starts gets worse then goes. I can’t explain the feeling any differently. With my fist my waters broke and I cannot really remember what early contractions felt like as it has been 6 years.
