This evening I was active again, and now every movement causes pain in my lower abdomen. The doctor said yesterday that the baby is lying transverse, but it feels like the head is already low. My discharge is normal and there's no spotting. Something is pressing so hard that I was afraid I might go into labor early. Could this pain be from symphysitis (pubic symphysis pain)? The pressure is intense when I walk, and every step sends a shooting pain into my vagina. This pregnancy is going to kill me 😭

If it's lying across (transverse), your muscles can be stretched a lot and cause that kind of pain. Yes — symphysitis can be that painful. Try lying on your back and lifting your legs up; if it's very painful or you can't do it, that's likely symphysitis.

I haven't been able to move for two days 😭 It's awful... My ultrasound isn't until September 11.

It seems this really is due to pubic symphysis pain. I'm sorry — be prepared to spend tomorrow lying down. I can't even say I walked today. I was sorting through my wardrobe, and when I stood up from the couch I couldn't walk at all.

We also started renovating the nursery before our baby girl arrives. The wallpaper needs updating — I'll help, and my husband will take care of the rest, of course.

baydysh anna Could you tell me what you're taking (medication, supplements, or other measures) and what you're doing to try to improve the situation? I'm here to listen and support you.

I had the same with my second and third pregnancies. It usually started around weeks 34–36 — you're not alone.

I try to stay active and go to strength training, but sometimes when I walk briskly or at the end of the day I feel such pressure that I just want to lie down. At home the “second shift” starts after work — the older kids demand their share of my attention. By 11 p.m. I’m completely wiped out, and then restless legs and numbness between my shoulder blades kick in, so I can’t fall asleep. It’s a nightmare 🤪
