Oh I hated this part the worst. So sorry for you. I have always had sciatic pain since my first pregnancy which is not what you have but may be getting as I did and have kept the last 35 years. My daughter is 30 and blessed with it also. Plus I had back labor as she did. Try to recline with your knees bent and sort of side ways as much as you can. A small pillow behind your lower back and a flat one under your bum when you must sit flat. Ask your partner to place his hand against your lower back and push when you can. So you have only about 2, 2.5 weeks now. it seems like forever right? I hope she is ready before the so you can get some relief. Whats her name? Congrats!

I had the same thing. Your body is carrying alot of weight, and your pelvic bones will be preparing to spread to some extent for the delivery. If you are in alot of pain I would call your OBGYN. When in doubt, check with your doctor, that is why they make the big bucks. Goodluck, I wish you the very best. Congrats on the baby. PS I couldn't lay flat on my back without major pain in my tailbone and even snap and crackle noises at the end, but I am just fine now.

i had some pain there when i was pregnant its nothing unnormal its just that the baby is so low and near there that its aching that area. but it will be gone soon your baby is almost here
i used to try not to think about it and focus on other things and it seemed to work great try it it might work for you also use a pillow btwn your back and but (where you crack starts) it helps a lot also when sitting try to sit as straight as possible. when you sleep put a pillow btwn your legs

Talk to your doctor. Sometimes tail bone pain might mean your baby's is face up. Not harmful to baby just painful to you. A lot of the time they end up turning around, but if he doesn't then you might have back labor. It's a lot of pain in your back during labor. It's all worth it though! :)

It's called posterior pelvic pain.
I've had it since 24 weeks and it's a "pain"!
Try to sit up as straight as possible, put something behind your back when you sit, and walk A LOT. Trust me, it helps.
I don't know if your baby dropped or not, but if not, he def. did and that is what you're feeling.

I had this when i was pregnant with my eldest son. It does go after your baby is born. Try sitting on a comfy pillow.
