Butt hurts!

Lauren&Erich

Does anyone else get a sharp pain in their butt cheek?? Mines in my left butt cheek and it hurts to walk! It comes and goes every so often- I just think it's so weird and wanna know if y'all have that too??

Try waking up every morning and having your body from your butt to your legs ache!

I get tailbone pain from sitting. It hurts to sit. For real? It's time to retire.

Sounds like sciatica.

My right hip has felt like it has needed to pop for about 3 weeks. If I lean on it wrong I can rocket out of my seat like a cartoon

me too! I think the relaxin made my hips spread and now I'm sitting more directly on my tailbone than I used to. My last pregnancy this happened, and I was sitting at work a lot - I considered getting a donut pillow to sit on. It may help if you sit a lot?

@RaeChay and @Cryssteen‌ - Same. Sitting and laying down hurt since it felt like a big giant bruise. Spoke with my OB and she prescribed me some physical therapy to help.

That happened to me early on during the first trimester! As soon as I wasn't so sick anymore, I started walking and stretching and that seemed to alleviate it.

Not sciatica, but often mistaken for it. Pelvic girdle pain and tight piriformis muscle, which runs close to the sciatic nerve. Your muscles are compensating for the relaxin affecting the joints and ligaments by tightening. Remedies: sit on a birth ball, massage, gentle stretching, a chiropractor trained for pregnancy care, a pregnancy hip support belt, or physical therapy.

I'm with you. It hurts to sit on a hard chair for very long, and I feel like I have a permanent ass cramp.
