in My baby was born in May 2011
I'm getting a lot of pelvic pain today, esp when i walk. They're like shooting pains from my cervix down.



Is everyone else getting them? I know he's head down so it this him headbutting me or starting to engage. I can bear them I just want to check it's normal!! Will they carry on for the nxt seven weeks?

    It could be where he's head down he's sitting on a nerve and thats causing the pain ?



    The lower they get the more niggles you get, oh the joys !

    Once he's really really far down it feels much weirder. Like having a ball between your legs ! I've got the bruised feeling today too, but i'm putting mine down to walking around so much today.

    Do you have SPD ? Could be a touch of that aswell ? Mine is mild thankfully but really rares up when I walk and is like you describe in the bruised, hurts at the front feeling.

    Yeah I've definitely had more than my fair share of pointy stick jabbing :lol: My SPD is really bad these days, I'm wincing with every step now & midwife informed me the other day that baby is almost engaged but is currently thumping against my pelvis, which is great fun image
