Theres this nagging ache on one side that shoots a little when i sit too long, started in my second tri. Bump is growing so maybe related? Is anyone else feeling this kind of pain.
That is often the sciatic nerve or pelvic pressure as the baby grows, very common. Warm compress, not sitting too long, and gentle stretches helped me. If it is shooting down the leg badly, mention it to your gynac for some relief tips.
Oh that pain in the backside is so real in the third trimester, literally and figuratively haha. For me it was the nerve getting pressed. A pillow between my knees while sleeping helped, give it a try.
My physio gave me some gentle pelvic stretches for exactly this, with my doctor's okay. They eased the buttock and hip pain a lot. Dont push hard though, and check with your gynac before starting any stretches.
