What causes pelvic bone pain during pregnancy?

It's usually due to the relaxin hormone softening your pelvic joints. Definitely mention it to your gynac if the pain is too severe.

Actually yaar, it's just the baby's weight and pressure shifting downwards. Try not to take wide steps and keep your knees together when getting out of bed.

My baby is a toddler now but I remember that horrible pelvic pain. It's caused by the relaxin hormone loosening your joints to prepare for birth, so hang in there!

I had terrible pelvic pain during my eighth month. Sleeping with a pregnancy pillow between my knees was the only thing that gave me some relief.

The extra pressure on your pelvic bones can be really tough. Be cautious with how you stand and sit, and try not to make any sudden movements.
