3rd trimester
groin pain
Marieke
Hey ladies,
I'm currently a good 34 weeks pregnant and for about a week now I've often been having painful stabbing pains in my groin. (It feels a bit like a cramp could kick in at any moment, but then it goes away again). I find it very painful and it happens to me totally unexpectedly. For example, in the middle of the supermarket I can't move forward or backward for a minute. Then it's another hour or two until I get another stab.
Does anyone recognize this ailment??

Hi, I'm dealing with it too right now.
I went to the midwife today and she explained that it's the ligaments combined with the pelvis loosening up and the baby getting heavier. I asked her if I could still exercise, and she gave me the green light, so no worries!
Hang in there! -

Hey Marieke,
I'm 34w and have been dealing with it for about 4 weeks now, especially when I'm busy. Resting more helps me; hopefully it helps you too.
