Talk to me about PGP (pelvic girdle pain)

Anyone suffering from PGP? I feel like I pulled a muscle but thinking its PGP brought on by 3T combined with too much walking today. If so, what has your experience been and how do you deal?

    yeee-ouch!  Sounds painful, so big, soft ((HUGS)) to you!  I wonder if getting one of those belly-brace things would be helpful?

    I've just been resting a lot and keeping my legs together. ;)

    I'll ask the OB what to do next week when I see her.  Hopefully it improves before then but man it hurts, especially when I'm crouching, walking, or changing positions in bed.

    Are you talking about symphysis pubis dysfunction? I had that with my son from 22 weeks til I gave birth at 37.5 weeks and it was a living nightmare. It honestly terrifies me of having it again. It will likely get worse as you get further along. By the end I couldnt walk(I collapsed frequently) or even dress myself it was so bad. I plan to go to a physical therapist this time around. Chiropractic care helped, and I go to the chiropractor anyways so they will treat me for that as well but even though it did help it wasnt enough. But mine seemed to be an exceptionally bad case.

    I talked to my doctor about SPD (I'm assuming it's the same thing) at my 20 week appointment. It hurts in my low back and hips when I stand or walk a lot. I bought a maternity support belt to wear when I know I'll be on my feet a lot and it helps so much! I also so yoga to stretch and it feels good. In particular, I like child's pose and sitting crossed legged, then just lean forward with a straight back.

    @hawaiiansunset09 and @luciddreamer106 - SPD and PGP are the same thing .. I think PGP is the newer term for it?

    lucid - I was doing child's pose this morning to try to help it and it seemed to do some good - I just rested my head on a bunch of pillows.

    hawaiian - this is my nightmare.  Trying to dress myself was pretty painful these last couple of days, particularly when standing on the left leg.  I feel like it happened so suddenly.  LO switched from transverse to head down a day or two before which I think was the primary reason for the sudden onset; well, that plus a lot of walking.  I have a long commute to work so the collapsing/being unable to ambulate on my own is one of my main fears.
