Can early pregnancy cause hip pain?

Question

Im just 8 weeks and already getting this dull pain in my hip and kamar area. Thought hip pain comes later na, not this early. Anyone else felt this in first trimester?

Kavya Khanna · Answer

Yes, it is very common as your pelvis relaxes. Just don't sit in one position for too long, and if the pain is too severe, please ask your doctor.

Vibha Modi · Answer

Yes, early pregnancy hormones can definitely cause hip pain. Don't worry, it is quite normal.

Kamakshi Thakur · Answer

Yaar, actually it’s super common because of the relaxin hormone loosening up your joints. Just try not to stand for too long and rest.

I had this in my early months, and my mom used to give me warm milk and told me to rest. Doing light stretches helped, but make sure to rest well.

I had terrible hip pain in my first trimester too and was so worried! Did anyone else also feel it this early? It got better for me with a pregnancy pillow.

Have faith and stay positive, your body is doing a beautiful job of creating life. Mild pains are part of this journey, just pray and rest.

Yes, it definitely can! 🌸 Your body is stretching and preparing for the baby, so mild hip pain is quite common. Try using a pregnancy pillow!
