Pelvic girdle pain!!

They typically refer you to a physio, but this can take a few days sometimes longer and you’re typically given exercises to do at home and mild pain relief if any. Not much you can do really for it, just avoid too much movement

I’ve had it since 20 weeks, around then my midwife referred me to physio which they gave me a few exercises to do which didn’t help unfortunately. Found it manageable until this past week, im in absolute agony all the time causing me to be in floods of tears all day everyday. I can’t move around, can’t sit on the sofa or anywhere, can’t use my ball, the pressure down there and pain whenever I move in bed is excruciating it was really bringing me down. (I’m 39+2) I went to triage and the dr there prescribed me dehrydocodeine to take as paracetamol wasn’t helping. It can’t be taken for long periods of time due to risks of becoming addicted to it and baby becoming addicted so I’m using it for my last week in pregnancy now, I take one before bed and it helps a lot! If I have a bad day with it I take one midday and it seems to last and help until my next dose at bedtime. You can ring your GP about this or go to triage, either or x
