Wow-third trimester is definetely the toughest on my body. Lately I've been experiencing stabbing pain in my pelvic area. I actually called the nurse last night to make sure it was "normal". She thinks it is probably Cooper in some weird position in that area that is causing pressure. It hurts when I get up from a standing or sitting position and then continues to hurt when I walk for awhile. Also, with the amount of hormones raging through my body, they are making that area softer which only makes this added pressure worse. And for Cooper's part he is merely gaining poundage now-he should be up to 4 pounds now. She said that it may go away or I may be dealing with it until I have the baby. She also recommended a specific type of belt to hold up my belly so the pressure doesn't drop into that region, or wearing a tighter pair of pants. I'd opt for the belt as I already feel constricted in all my clothes.
