Severe hip pain

peanutmusepeanutmuse member
in August 2013 Moms

I am having some serious hip pain right now. It's been on & off for the past three days. Does anyone else have this? I know that it's way too early to have a symptom like this, but it's freaking me out.

Disclaimer: I have SI (sacroiliac) joint dysfunction and hip flexor strain that I keep under control with PT exercises. So I have an existing condition... it just feels exponentially worse right now. I think I am going to have to call my regular doctor tomorrow to figure out how to get this pain under control. But just on an off chance that someone else has experienced this, I figured I would ask my lovely bumpies for any feedback or advice.

    I tweaked my left leg at work and I swear it still hurts more than it should. 

    I know this isn't really helpful, but I'm currently in the same boat.

    I have chronic back problems that are often exacerbated by hormones. Maybe something similar is going on? I'm sorry, that sounds awful. ::sad face::

    Since I got my BFP, I get hip pain when I don't pee on time!! So random. Since your pain seems to be more consistent, ask your doc if you can go see a chiropractor. Maybe it will help :-)

    I was wondering if there might be a hormone connection. I also have degenerative disc disease in L4 and L5, but for some reason that hasn't been bothering me at all. So weird. When he found out that I was trying to get KU, my physical therapist told me that I'm probably going to have to wear a pregnancy support brace, especially since I am a full-time dance instructor. This is going to be interesting...  Fortunately, I can take the summer off!

    My whole 4th week I had lower back pain and hip pain. In early pregnancy your body produces more of the hormone relaxin to prepare your body.... It went away during my 5th week. To ease the pain I found that sleeping with a pillow under my hips, with my hips falling towards the bed helped...

    I've been having hip, groin, and back pains since I was at 3 weeks.  Yesterday I was actuallly having pains in my hip bones which was weird.  I'm not too worried about it though because our hips are stretching right now, and so long as the pain is parallel (on both sides) it makes it even more likely to just be those growing pains.

    This is exactly right. The hormone changes, the relaxin, and all the other changes happening in your body add to the pain you're experiencing. Plus you're probably exhausted, which we all know increases perception of pain. Def ask the doc if anything additional can be done to relieve it!! GL

    Agree. Maybe ask your pt about an Si belt. You should be able to wear it until you really start to show.
