pelvic pain during your pregnancy
Many pregnant women will recognize it; pelvic pain. Especially if you have been pregnant before, there is a greater chance that you will suffer from pelvic complaints in your next pregnancy. One has mild pain, the other can barely walk. Unfortunately, pelvic pain cannot be treated with a magical remedy. But there are a number of things you can do to reduce the symptoms.
Pelvic complaints manifest themselves differently in every woman. You may have pain in your lower back, buttocks, thighs, pubic bone, and the back of your pelvis. Walking, standing, turning over in bed and getting up from a chair are often movements and actions that are painful. In these ways you can still somewhat reduce the complaints.
Tips for pelvic pain during your pregnancy
Hopefully these tips will make pelvic pain more bearable.
1. Activity and rest
Alternate activities and rest well, do not vacuum the entire house from top to bottom in one go, but do this for example per floor or room. Lie flat for 15 minutes regularly during the day, for example every 2 hours. Even if you think it is not (yet) necessary.
2. Sleep with a pillow between the legs
If you sleep on your side, it is wise to place a pillow between the thighs. A nursing pillow or pregnancy pillow is often nice for this. But there are also special knee pads for sale. By placing a pillow between the legs, your pelvis is more stable .
3. Keep moving
Keep moving regularly to maintain your fitness and resilience. Walking, cycling or swimming, for example, are ideal for pregnant women. Always use your common sense and listen after your body, crossing your boundaries is never good.
4. Get a massage
Ask your partner for a massage of the lower back and buttocks on a regular basis. This can relieve the pain and bring you a lot of relaxation. So just let yourself be pampered!
5. Watch your posture
Good posture is essential. Distribute your weight on both legs. Stand upright with your pelvis in the middle and keep your knees loose and your shoulders low.
Do you have a lot of pelvic pain? Then contact a therapist such as a physiotherapist or remedial therapist. They can help you, advise and give you exercises for at home.
