Anyone have a sore tailbone

My tailbone hurts so bad. It isn't constant but at times when I go to stand up it kills me! Is this normal? I asked my doctor and she said it is very common but I've never heard of anyone else who has this problem!

    Holy crap!  I do!  I had no idea it was a symptom.  I was trying to figure out what I possibly could have done to it.  It's been going on for 4 days now- and not being able to take advil....it's super annoying.

    Well I didn't know it was a sumptom either but I started to google sore tailbone and as I was typing it sore tailbone in pregnancy came up and there are tons of sites about it.

    I was wondering about this. I have had a sore tailbone and sore legs the past two days.  Good to know it is normal.

    Oh my gosh! I was just complaining to DH about that! It hurts most when I wake up. Not every morning but some mornings, like today, it is killing me! Did your doctor say what causes this?

    I have it too! It's especially bad when i change positions, like laying in bed then standing up. It feels like my whole tail bone area freezes up and its painful to walk!

    I'm glad to know I'm not the only one! I was thinking I was crazy.

    Just an FYI, and not that it matters in the least, but you may have a tilted (back) uterus.  My tailbone hurt so bad with my LO, and is just starting to feel better with this pregnancy at 12.5 weeks.  My OB says it is because I have a tilted uterus, so there is more pressure back there.  He also said 100% normal.  :)  Good luck!

    Oh man, you should get used to it. I broke mine about 10 years ago and it still hurts off and on! There will come a point that you just don't notice it anymore...hopefully I will be immune to this pregnancy symptom!

    Ohhhh! At my ultrasound they said I had a tilted uterus but they didn't say which way it was tilted. I'm thinking back becuase my tail bone hurts SO bad! Thanks for the info! :)
