I was just diagnosed with SPD at 12 weeks. Is anyone else suffering from this? Did it get better with time? I start PT next week...but ouch!

    I haven't been diagnosed with it but I've been reading up on it due to some severe pain I'm having in my body even when I'm just rolling over in bed or trying to put on pants! From what I read PT is really your only option. I hope it gets better for you! I'm 24 weeks and it's been happening for the last week or two. No fun!

    Thank you @mels823‌ and @triplea598‌ I am very hopeful that PT does the trick. I was offered pain meds from my OB which I declined since that can't be great for baby so I will definitely be religiously doing those exercises!

    I am so happy you posted this! I had it with my last 2 pregnancies, although the last one was tolerable, but it is horrible! I work at a busy hospital on midnight shift, and I hate that I can barely walk! I will be discussing this with my doctor next week, and hopefully getting physical therapy! ordering a support belt right now!
