My mother suggested doing very gentle sits-stretches and resting with a pillow under my hips. She said it is just the body preparing for delivery, which is true. But if it starts hurting too badly or if you feel any burning, please consult your doctor immediately.
It is quite common as your body releases hormones to relax your ligaments. Try not to stand for too long and take short breaks. Wishing you a comfortable journey ahead.
I am planning to conceive soon and I keep reading about these symptoms like pelvic and vaginal pressure. Is it a sharp pain or more like a dull ache that happens as the baby grows? Hope you get some relief soon!
Oh dear, don't stress too much, your pelvic bones are literally stretching to make space for the baby! This kind of pressure and mild pain is quite common as the baby grows. Just lie down, put a pillow between your knees, and take some rest.
Yes, the pressure down there can get so uncomfortable, especially in the later months. I usually just try to distract myself with some yummy home-cooked snacks and keep my feet up. If the pain gets too sharp, definitely call your doctor though.
This is mostly due to the increased blood flow and the weight of your growing baby pressing down on the nerves. However, if you feel any sharp stabbing pain or cramping, you must inform your gynac. Take it easy and don't exert yourself right now.
Carrying twins meant double the weight pressing down on my pelvic floor from very early on! It felt like my pelvic area was bruised constantly. If the pain is too much or sharp, do mention it to your gynac, but otherwise it is just gravity doing its work!
