literal pain in the backside!

well as the title says for about a week ive been getting pains in my backside and radiating down to upper thighs. i thought nothing of it but the other night when i couldnt sleep i did some googling (silly i know!) and it appears to be a common complaint of pelvic girdle pain aka aparantly spd. is it possible this early on in my first pregnancy? if the pain gets worse ill contact my gp or midwife, but has anyone else had or having this? thanks ladies x

  • I have had a sharp pain at the side of my tailbone, to one side. Mainly after sitting for long periods. It seems to be disappearing though. i googled and thought it was PGP as looks like SPD is more pain at the front of your pelvis. Hopefully it's just a phase your pelvis is going through as the relaxin loosens off the ligaments.



    Just take it easy for a few days!

  • I have the same as SueJ and it's definitely worse if I sit for a long time or if I am constipated! Mine isn't really in my legs though so I'm not sure if it's the same things or SPD related?
