Groin pain/soreness?

haylo33 · May 2014

My groin is suddenly sore today. Almost like I worked out... That type of sore. I didn't do anything abnormal or strenuous. Could it be caused by the baby dropping? Anyone else have this? It is right along where my underwear go in between my legs. I've felt different the last 2 days. Nothing specific, just off. I'm sure I'm just hoping for signs of progression, but labor has to start somewhere! I am almost 38 weeks

Once DD dropped (4 weeks ago!!!) I started feeling the same way. Dr says she's engaged, but I'm not dilated...good luck!

Totally normal. From baby dropping plus all those relaxing hormones. Lovely stuff.

Yeah, I think it is baby dropping and hips/pelvis opening more. I've been getting that rode a bike too long/kicked in the crotch feeling for the last few days if I've been sitting down for a while, and when I first wake up in the morning.

This. It's definitely worse for me in the morning, too.

I've had it for weeks. I figure it's just my hips spreading, which I'm grateful for because it never happened with ds, which I'm sure was part of my problems delivering him.

I can hardly get out of bed in the morning! It hurts so much. It gets better once I move around a bit, but I'm (almost) afraid to go to sleep in the nights because of how much pain I am in in the mornings.
