It started last night its a constant pain in my pubic bone and feels like something is ready to push out. I can hardly walk at all and if I do Im forced to waddle although this is still painful,, no matter what position Im in its always there. I cant even lift my legs to put my underware on :( Its NOT round ligament pain this is down low sometimes feels as if its in my rear end as well.
Does anyone else suffer from this?......Any suggestions that help alleviate this would be appreciated.
P.S third baby.

I agree, it does sound like your pubic bone is separating. Mine did at 5 mo- I could feel the gap and so could my husband. It sucked. I was in pain every time I moved, and rolling over/ changin positions in bed was horrible! Try sleeping with a pillow between your thighs and knees. That helped a little. Mine grated together and popped too. Coming home from the hospital and getting in bed after my daughter was born was the best relief ever. Unfortunately, you probablly have another 10- 15 weeks. On the other hand, if you're feelin it in your "rear end"- that might raise a red flag. If you mean your tail bone, then its probablly just pressure now that the joint is loosening and will be straining your whole pelvis all the way around. But if you're refering to rectal pressure, then you might want to contact your provider (doctor or midwife) and get checked to see if you're dilating. Good luck hon, you got a tough road ahead of you.

You poor thing, I feel your pain. I ended up with a seperated pubic bone after delivering my 10lb daughter. Couldn't get out of bed for a few days. Now I am pregnant again and I can feel it seperating. It hurts like hell when I lay on my side, the only thing that helps is having a pillow between my legs and trying to lift my leg to put underwear on is a killer too. Unfortunately there isn't too much you can do for it. But I would mention it to your dr next visit. Good luck!

It sounds as though the baby has begun to descend in it's position towards the birth canal (which usually occurs in the 3rd trimester).
I'm not a doctor, but I have read such cases, and have a child myself so I'm familiar with that feeling!
But check with your medical professional as this can sometimes mean an early birth, and precautions may have to be taken to prevent this.
the doctor can then recommend ways to strengthen this area through exercise, which will make it easier to get around- especially as you probably have two other children to consider.
Hope for the best until you know the rest !x!

I'm on baby #4, and this is the first pregnancy I've really experienced the same thing. I've been getting down on all fours, sticking my rear up in the air, and rocking, that seems to move her a little bit taking the pressure off. Good Luck, I feel for ya.

I didn't have this with my first and did with my second at 29 weeks and it didn't feel right. For me it started at 11 am and I called the OB office 3 times before 5 and they kept telling me it was normal and it just didn't feel right to me. Finally that night my husband said "Better safe than sorry" and brought me to the ER. I was in premature labor and managed to hold on to my son for a few weeks longer.
Get to the ER or OB office and demand to be examined and put on a monitor to check for contractions that you may not be feeling.
Good luck!

I had that in the past. Its the baby and your body getting close ready to deliver. i did walk around for 3 weeks like that. it was awful. So it could be anytime or even another week to go.Just pay attention if you start having contractions, just time them and make sure they are either steady or getting stronger or both. It could be that the baby is engaging and lower in your belly.

Sounds like the pubic bone is starting to separate. Call your OB.
Unfortunately, for people with this, there isnt much you can do other than rest and maybe a tylenol.
There is a name for it, but I cant recall it.

You need to discuss this with your doctor. This sounds too serious to ignore.
