Pelvic Bone Popping Out.... Posted: 08-21-06 00:14am
Hey, the last couple of weeks my pelvic
bone keeps popping in and out of place.
Has anyone else had this and will it
affect labour??? Any help would be
appreciated.....

Hi jillie81, this is caused by the hormone
relaxin ( it think its called) it is
produce during pregnancy to enable the
pelvis bones to make way for the baby
during delivery. The down side to this
hormone is that it affects every ligament
in the body making your joints easy to
displace, this is why doctors recommend
that you stop lifting heavy weights, and
stop lifting things over your head etc
during pregnancy. The only advice I can
give you is to take it easy so that you do
not injure yourself.

I did. My legs
kept giving out. And as the previous
poster said it is caused by the hormone
relaxin. There really isn't anything to
do for it except to take it easy if you
can. And in my situation it didn't
affect my labor.

Thanks for your help guys! I had an
appointment yesterday and my ob said the
same thing - unfortunately there's nothing
we can do!!!! I'm glad it didnt affect
your labour - I hope it doesnt affect
mine!
