I'm almost due but my pubic bone is killing me, can anyone relate and give advice?

Question

I'm almost due but when I wake up in the morning and try to get up, my pubic and hip bones hurt real bad. My OB said this baby is going to be 2lbs heavier than my previous two so I'm scared.My front pubic bone feels like somebody kicked me there or I bumped the corner of a table...ouch! Also my OB said this kid has a good sized head..great..has anyone had pubic bone pains too with a larger baby?

Answer 1

i feel pretty terrible down there too. its so sad, i have to do like a 4 point turn to get out of bed to pee...numerous times a night. im not sure how much mine weighs now, theyre supposed to do an ultrasound at my next appt, which is friday. at my 27 week scan he was quite a bit bigger than most babies are at 27 weeks. i think the norm is about 2 lbs and he was 2.9 lbs. anywho, good luck with it. i wish i could give you advice but i opened this hoping to find some too. =)  

Answer 2

Sounds like baby has engaged in the pelvic cavity...unfortunately there is nothing you ca really do to relieve the pain till you give birth
