Re: Is tailbone pain a pregnancy symptom??

  • Not my tailbone, but my pubic bone.  It hurts.  I am guessing carrying a heavy load (there are two in there) isn't helping.
  • I've had a sciatic nerve issue in the past where it spread to my tailbone.  I'm not sure if that is what everyone else is experiencing.

    how far along are you?

    i had some pains earlier in my pregnancy that was not sciatic nerve pain but it was my uterus squishing my tainbone before it popped up from my pubic bone. but around the 14-15 week it pops out of there and i havnt had any issues with it since.

  • It's from your hips spreading and it's fairly common and more noticeable if your sit all day. I try and walk around at work and take an afternoon walk which helps a lot.

    my pubic bone is killing me, too!!  (My tailbone is, too and I make my DH rub it. haha)   My pubic bone hurt a ton when I was pg with DD and my dr prescribed a baby hugger/prenatal cradle and I never got it.  I got a script for one today and you bet your bippy that I'm going to go out and get it ASAP!

  • I had this pain with my first child. My doctor said it was because my hips were widening to make room for the baby. Plus, your carrying more weight in your mid-section.
  • hi  i feel your pain which is a new one for me , because as this is my second prgnancy but my first was 13 years ago  i had nothing like this, but then again i didn't have morning sickness then either or heart burn  but then again  they do say one pregnancy is as different as the next .

     good luck  i haven't figured out anything  that help as of yet if you come up with anything please let me know  as im 18 weeks and have a ways to go yet

    thanks
