symphysis pubis dysfunction - i cant take anymore and no one will help
ladies please help
i have been diagnosed with symphysis pubis dysfunction and have been really sore for the past fortnight but its getting increasingly constant and intolerable pain. I went for my 38 + 2 midwife appointment today and she explained that the babys head is on the rim of my pelvis and has been for the past two weeks, she says that the pain is unlikely to subside any until the head engages and even then she cant guarantee any relief. My baby has been measuring 2 weeks and a few days bigger since week 28 and now is measuring term. Im terrified now of going over my due date as this baby is just getting bigger and bigger, its not engaged and my pelvis is split .... can u imagine what birth will be like if they allow me to go 12 days over? what do i do? i genuinely cant deal with this anymore never mind for another 3 and a half weeks ................... please help (sorry for posting here but dij is so so quiet) and im deperate.

Hope your baby comes soon
Have ou been taking any pain relief? I know it doesn't take it away but can help it. I have been prescribed co-codamol wihch I only take at night so that I can get a little bit of sleep - I took it with both of my other pregnanices and never had any complications.
I would persist and get someone to see you whether it is through MW, GP or speaking to hospital you need ot pester them to get thme to take you seriously.
I hope you feel better soon and get some rest and relief - Hopefully baby will come soon
hope gp can give you some pain relife x
