Anyone else suffer from PPGP (pelvic girdle pain) in their pregnancy? Looking for tips to make me a…

I had it quite bad when I was around 16 weeks but it's eased off now 29 weeks, I used the pillow between the legs, on my left side and a pillow behind my back... I also got a exercise ball and started using that every night xx

It's so bloody sore isn't it😢 my mums getting me one of them balls today so be on that tonight to try help me! Xxx

i dont think the birthing ball helps with the pain. id recommend the sleeping pillow and flat comfy shoes also try not to open your legs to wide and regular short periods of movements instead of prolonged standing/walking and sitting still to long can hurt xxxx

Was the midwife and doctor who advised I get the ball as when I sit on the ball will take added pressure off my pelvis and help make me comfy .. That with my pain killers and plenty of rest until I get my physio xx

I've had it bad with both pregnancies, try to keep your knees together as much as possible. I've got a seat for the car that spins so you can keep your legs together getting in and out. I've got a slidy matt thing for rolling over in bed it's especially designed for PGP but I can't remember the name. Finally I had crutches last time which was embarrassing but helped. Also the hospital gave me a good support belt xx

Thanks Mrs will try that then! It's horrible! Xx

@rachbabyno2, how did you get a support belt? The physio told me i have to buy my own but I'm not really in a position to do right now

It was in my last pregnancy but the midwife gave it to me. I had bought my own that was just elastic and didn't really do anything but then she gave me that one that's much better. Maybe I was just lucky that they had some xx @sweetsesame
