Am I the only one...

who is losing control over their legs? It seems this little guy is putting a lot of pressure on a nerve that runs through my pelvis to my inner thigh and cause me not only great pain but also I am unable to keep any weight on that leg when it happens. I've had to catch myself from falling several times.

I've thought about calling and talking to my doctor about it but I figured there really isn't much that can be done about it.

Nope your not alone..I have been in the same situation.. it sucks because I cannot do anything I want to do because I can literally not walk.

Oh mamas, I am so sorry . It sounds like sciatica. Uggh. I wonder if chiropractic would help at this point. Chiro Kristin?? Acupuncture might touch it and it safe now to do points in that area- after all, they could only induce labor ( which isn't a bad thing at this point!! )

Hi,
I have pubic symphysis separation pretty bad and have alot of problems controlling my legs. The pain at night when I try to roll over is getting ridiculous. And walking is almost a joke, today my daughter told me she was giving me a 15 min. headstart to the car. My husband has to help me move my legs in and out of bed or to lift a leg to get into shower.

I know what you mean about not being able to go anywhere. yesterday, I was feeling better and really wanted to do something, but the thought of having to walk was too much.

Your ob/gyn isn't really going to be able to do anything. I would suggest seeing a chiro, maybe they can help. I see one several times per week and always feel better, but even they can't really help with separation.

Almost over though! Can't wait to take a nice long walk in the park!
