I Hate Being An Ungrateful Pregnant Woman....
....after all I've been through to get here, but Oh. My. God.the pain in my pelvis is unbearable. Nothing helps since it's the babies' position causing it. I've been through countless orthopedic surgeries, but this is the worst pain ever.
How can I take my mind off it?

Have you taken tylenol? Used a heating pad? Tried a yoga ball?
I do not miss the pelvic pain at all. I never thought I'd feel normal again but I promise you, it's so worth it and it does end almost instantaneously!

It could be SPD. It's a condition where your pelvic bone separates too much. Does it hurt a lot when you wake up in the morning? I had it and it was terrible (self diagnosed) . I went to a physical therapist who basically thought I was nuts although I had every symptom of it. They said it was the ligaments pulling. I had only started with the PT at 34 weeks and delivered at 36 so it never really helped me.

I found yoga and stretching helped a lot.

Re: I Hate Being An Ungrateful Pregnant Woman....
Laying down a specific way helps to reduce the pain a little bit for me -- I'll literally just lay completely straight on the couch, and stretch my legs out little by little. Also, when it feels the worst, I will take it very slowly with anything I'm doing and make sure I'm stretching out legs.
Hope you feel better.

That is awful. Feel free to complain. Tho I also feel guilty complaining as it also took us so long to get preg.
I have a pain under my right boob. also due to baby positioning. it literally hurts as if someone beat me up or I was in a car accident.
I found Pilates very helpful. The pain goes away after a session. My instructor helps me stretch out and basically create some more space for the baby.
For me actually sitting and lying down what causes most of the pain. So walking helps.

You don't sound ungrateful...I agree with Strawberry2468. It sounds like SPD. I had it so bad (also self diagnosed). I felt the pain in my pelvis. like there were people pulling my legs apart like a wishbone. It's awful, and I really hope you feel better.

Thank you all! Sitting and laying down with pillows under my butt helps, but walking is excruciating. My doc put me on modified bedrest, but luckily the babies are content in staying put so far.
