This is my 2nd pregnancy (I'm 22 1/2 weeks) and since 10 weeks I've had lower back and hip pain so bad it's often hard to walk. Sitting, standing, walking, lifting basically anything aggravates it to the point where I'm currently signed off sick! My doctor has referred me as an urgent case to a physiotherapist but I haven't heard anything back yet. In my first pregnancy I didn't get any back or hip pain until much further on and I don't think it's SPD as my pelvic bone isn't hurting, it's just across the back of my pelvis and into my hips.
Doctor has just told me to take paracetomol until I see the physio but it doesn't work for me anyway..
Any idea what it is and anything I can do to ease it??? I wouldn't mind so much if it was a big bump causing it but I've had it since the start!!!
