GOLD! Woohoo! Beancat, hope the Physio helps. I've been considering going to get some help with my pelvic floor. Did you need a referral? This post has been edited by Blossom73: 16/01/2013, 10:09 AM

Hi Blossom 73, no didnt need a referral. If you are in Melbourne I can give you her details. She is excellent and used by Francess Perry House as their in house physio as well as doing private practice. She only does womens problems and i should only need a couple of visits. So even though she is very expensive it could end up cheaper than going to someone who doesnt know much about the problem and having to go for several visits

Hey ladies! Hope everyone is coping with the heat, growing bellies, nesting and all of the other delights I had my 6mth checkup with my midwife today, and I've been diagnosed with SPD. I had a feeling given the extraordinary pain I've had in my pubic/pelvis area, but I didn't have this first time around, and was wondering if anyone else has had it before, or been diagnosed this pregnancy, and how you are managing it? I've been icing, taking Panadol and I got a belly belt in the mail yesterday so will start wearing it. Ergh, hope it goes away after the birth. ETA: My midwife also said they would be happy to hand our baby up to me as he is delivered via CS for immediate skin-to-skin! I'm pretty happy about this This post has been edited by Jenganoosh: 17/01/2013, 12:43 PM

Hi Jenganoosh. Yes have SPD this pregnancy, and for the other two. Have managed it differenty each time. Is this your first pregnancy - hate to tell you but it generally gets worse with each pregnancy, this time I have sciaticia as well. Am managing by doing: Seeing a specialised womens physio in Melb Back is currenty taped Wearing tubi grip 24/7 - likely to start the belt next week Supportive pillows at nights Keeping legs together/square 24/7 (ie imagine you are constanty wearing a mini skirt) Pelvic floor and deep core exercises Minimise lifting and twisting movements Walking on the flat Avoiding hills and stairs

Oh geez beancat, not boogie! 2nd pregnancy, didn't have it with my first at all. But that was 7 years ago Hopefully this belly belt helps. I will definitely be going to a specialist physio if this gets any worse. Look after yourself!

Hello Ladies belated xmas and new year wishes to you all. Ive been in Sydney well a small country town outside of Newcastle since before xmas just got back home Tuesday night. We had to wait for NSW fires to go out so we could travel home, that and I didnt have good reception. So I am back home and just caught up on everyone. Welcome to all the newbies, congrats on the pink and blues and positive u/s results. AFM I finally get to see little peanut tomorrow for my 20 week scan, Im currently 22 weeks so hoping everything is good. Hoping DF will change his mind about finding out gender. I'd like to know he wants a surprise. Time shall tell. Being a larger lady I dont know if Im small or huge but I tell you I feel huge! LOL Yes I have kranckles or whatever you call them but being attcked by mossies at Hay didnt help! I also have been exceptionally lucky I have been able to feel bubs for weeks now. Since new year stronger and can see/feel from outside. My bump is quiet high up. Survived some scoarcher days in sYDNEY AND HAD 43.1 IN Adelaide today - OMG!!! I'll let you all know how tomorrow goes. Before I go I love the tips and pointers regarding clothes and prams, being a firsttime mummy they are very very helpful - keep them coming ladies. We haven't brought a thing! Oh weehaggis awesome news!!!! All the very best for the next 9months
