OMG. I've read up on this a little but I never had it with my daughter.My pubic bone hurts SO BAD, It hurts whenever I move, and especially when I get up. Dear God, on top of that my foot slipped on the tile today when I was getting out of the shower and I did a Rusiian split but caught myself thank God. I swear I thought my body was going to rip in half. I got checked out at my appt. and had no contractions or anything but OUCH. I think I am officially starting to fall apart. I'm really uncomfortable in so many way. Does anyone else have this horrible pubic bone pain and if so have you found anything to alleviate it? Thanks, Marcie
Re: Does anyones pubic bone kill.
Oh yes -- I had horrible pelvic pain in my pg, one of my biggest complaints. At one point my MFM had me taking Ibuprofrin to help (just for a few days) and it worked and give me a short time of relief (it's not recommended for long term and you really should ask before taking it!!!!). Laying on my side with a pillow between my knees helped as did lounging on the couch (kind of half sitting/half lying down). If I walked any distance OMG it hurt -- so that was avoided.
So yeah -- be lazy as much as possible and it will help
Oh -- it took a few months after birth for it to go away too (sorry!)
Sorry are in pain -- that is the WORST!
I dont think there is much you can do for it but I would try to keep off your feet as much as possible, as the weight from the babies will make it worse...I think when it gets reallllly bad there might be some injections you can get but I think typically there is not much to be done & if it really comes apart, it can take a bit after birth to heal up, so another motivation for staying off your feet. I've been starting to get little zinging pains there periodically & said something to my OB and he basically said bedrest is the best preventive measure for it.
GL & I hope it doesnt get worse!?
