I posted this on the Health and Exercise Board too, but I'd like to get any insight from my favorite BMB as well
I'll be 30 weeks on Wednesday and still running somewhat consistently anywhere from 2-4 miles multiple times a week with my belly band (Lord it's amazing!). I also just started some light prenatal yoga as well. I've been getting "sore" in the pelvic/lower abdomen area after runs since about week 19 (ran a mini marathon at 20 weeks), but an evening of rest and lots of fluid typically seems to do the trick. However, I did 3 miles Saturday morning and still feel this "soreness" today. It hurts pretty much non-stop except for when I'm laying down on my side (almost fetal position). It hurts to get up (out of bed or a chair), it hurts to walk (I feel myself almost waddling today) and I know I couldn't run this evening if my life depended on it.
Everything I've read about RLP seems somewhat consistent with my symptoms and at almost 30 weeks I know I'll be growing a lot. I'm just wondering if that's all it is or if it's my 5'0 110 lb pre-pregnancy body telling me I can't run anymore... Anyone else have any experience with this from exercise or any other activity? Any relief suggestions?
Re: RLP or something more from running?
I feel like the pain is 100% from the inpact of running once the baby gets to a certain size. And for me it's really excruciating, like doesnt seem normal, but I always recover from it like 8-10 hours post-run. Just not worth it anymore, so elliptical is it.
