Pressure pain down in that area is sooo bad!!! suggestions Please!!

OMG it is getting worse, I can barely walk. I am 35 wks. OB says it is normal pressure pains to get. I am wearing a maternity band and taking Tylenol but it is still so bad. I feel the pain mainly on my left side of my vagina into my butt....doc says it is the pressure from the baby, fluid, etc..pressing down. Even laying in bed it hurts, any suggestions??

It sounds like half of what I was feeling at 12 weeks. My pelvic bone moved out of place. And I was feeling sharp pain from front to back, sore hips on both sides, and butt pain. I could barely walk, but sitting was way worse. Tylenol did nothing for me.

IMHO, OBs are idiots when it comes to pain or anything outside of the vagaygay area...

See my post on

I hope you get relief!

The only thing that helps me is sitting in my reclining chair and playing Farmville.

i had that at 34/35 wks too - i hung upside down off of my bed and it went away. Not even joking. That position shifted the baby off of that spot and i was so much more comfortable! (it didn't work at 37 weeks - he was too big to shift)

I did see your post, I don't think it is the pelvic thing for me, it is the pressure stuff...but thanks!!
