Tonight I was cleaning up the kids rooms (and granted, moving light furniture and such) There was a tub of outgrown clothes on the floor that I wanted to move into the closet. Rather than pick it up (it would have been heavier than anything else I'd moved), I decided to push it with my leg. Sure enough, the second I applied pressure, my pelvis POPS. It hurt! I immediately stopped and went to sit down. I felt fine after a few minutes and wasn't too concerned - went back about my evening. Loaded up the kids, went to pick up my paycheck, make a deposit and several other 'drive thru' type errands. I get home and nearly collapse at the pressure of my weight on my pelvis. I can hardly put either foot in front of me without writhing in pain. Call my midwife and she says I've pulled my pelvis. That the liklihood of it healing before I deliver is rare (it takes a long while and the added stress of the baby won't help) and that it could make labor more difficult. Oh, and I probably can't work anymore. Awesome.
