So painful. Mine was like where the hip bone met the pelvis socket. It wasnt sciatica. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233503 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 15:19:30 +0000 shopaholic 1233503@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh yup! Had that a lot during pregnancy. Sorry - it's no fun. Have you tried sitting on a yoga ball? I think that was my attempt/answer for every pain during pregnancy. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233457 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 15:11:03 +0000 LovelyPlum 1233457@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: ugh, I'm sorry, that sounds awful. But glad you're getting a new doctor! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233449 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 15:09:25 +0000 JerricaBenton 1233449@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@spaniellove: I'd had sciatica pre-preg and had the pain down the leg but during pregnancy I only felt it in my butt. Weird! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233426 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 15:06:13 +0000 spaniellove 1233426@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Ugh, I hadn't thought of sciatica but it makes sense. I've had it before from nerve damage but assumed that since the pain wasn't shooting down my leg it must be something else. Thank you, now I know what specifically to ask the new doctor about! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233323 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 14:50:29 +0000 JerricaBenton 1233323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sciatica! I had it very early but it got better by the time the baby dropped. Get a pregnancy pillow or sleep on your side with pillo between your legs and your legs in 'runner's position.

I had the same exact pains. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233305 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 14:47:49 +0000 Bao 1233305@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I agree with @mrs. wagon: sounds like sciatica. I had this my last pregnancy and this one, started at 14 weeks for me this time. I actually even had this pain PP too. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233298 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 14:46:13 +0000 mrs. wagon 1233298@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It sounds exactly like sciatica pain to me... but I didn't get it til the 3rd trimester with both pregnancies. Basically the weight of the baby settles on the sciatic nerve and there's nothing you can do about the pain until the baby shifts off of the nerve. Could be?? bodies do all kinds of weird things during pregnancy!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-is-this-mysterious-pain-literally-in-my-butt#post-1233222 Thu, 21 Nov 2013 14:31:46 +0000 spaniellove 1233222@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>This was the one question I tried to ask at my appointment yesterday, but the nurse looked at me blankly and said I wasn't far enough along to have any pain. So helpful. </p> <p>It might be from the injections I get in my hip area, but I have this pain all the way at the bottom of my butt. If you sat on your hands and felt the bony parts touching your hands, that's where the pain is. Or if you've done yoga, the sit bones and everything around it. It hurts so much to walk, sit, lie down, pretty much do anything. What could this be? </p> <p>I feel like that one woman in the "What To Expect When You're Expecting" movie who spends forever TTC thinking pregnancy is going to be so great and finds out it's not exactly glamorous. :wink: </p>
