I jinxed myself...

Yesterday I posted that I love being pregnant... and I really really have loved it.. until today.

A few months before I got pregnant I was having intense hip & groin pain. I went to the ER a few times and finally got an MRI that showed that I had a labreal tear in my hip (its a tear in the cartlidge of the hip joint..something like that)..I was referred to a specialist who ordered me to get an MRI with contrast and who was booking me for surgery. I was in extreme pain for a while. DH and I BD'ed ONCE that month.. only once due to the pain... my MRI was scheduled at the end of the month...2 days before it I still never got AF so I took a test and surprise surprise.. a BFP!

A week into pregnancy I was so happy I had zero pain and I thought maybe I would get through this entire pregnancy without any.. Well I woke up this morning and have been in tears ever since. I hurt so bad. I couldn't even lift my leg to shave it this morning. I am in extreme pain and I just want surgery to fix this already
Tylenol doesn't work. Not much did work actually. Obviously I know I cant do that at the moment.. and who knows if I am going to want to do it right after the baby is born, its a long recovery

I am also nervous this will keep me from having a V-birth. I can not lift my leg up at all.. not even a little.

Thanks if you read this. I just needed to whine... bc I really dont think there is anything else that I can do.

First, I hope you feel better

Second, the pain might just come and go. I have a herniated disc in my lower back (really low like tail bone area) and there have been a few days where the pain was so bad that I wasnt even sure how Id make it through the rest of my pregnancy but then the next day its gone.

Im still nervous it might be a problem later on though I hope your pain is just temporary.

Re: I jinxed myself...

I have no advice at all, but I wanted to send you hugs and wish you the best -- I really hope the pain subsides and doesn't come back!!! I'm so sorry you are suffering with this!

Re: I jinxed myself...

just wanted to say I'm sorry you are going through this and I hope it feels better soon

I totally know how you feel though bc I am having intense pain in both of my ankles and can't really walk at all and it just came on at about 4wks and I really can't do anything about it and it's my nightmare it will last the whole pregnancy and get worse as i gain weight

here's hoping you heal quickly or if not heal then are at least pain free

oh and one possible idea. . I did go to my acupuncturist for pain and the swelling in one of my ankles and pain went down A LOT. . .she was my fertility acupuncturist too so she was high on treating pain without drugs. .

Re: I jinxed myself...

oh no! feel better...hope it something that comes and goes as your ligaments get more lax from the hormones! feel better

Re: I jinxed myself...

Oh no!!!!!! Try doing the elliptical. Didnt that help when you were doing it before you got pregnant?

Re: I jinxed myself...

Oh Jen I'm so sorry to hear that the pain is back again! I hope you feel better soon!
