Wow, thank you everyone for your kind input!
Plumtree, thank you for the SPD information -- groin pain is definitely another horrid symptom I've been experiencing. My pelvis too feels like its split right down the middle sometimes! Would you recommend me going straight to a physio? Any contact details would be duly appreciated.
I think I'll check with a physio first and see if I have SPD, if not I'll go to a chiropractor. Im dreading the MCHC tomorrow and may not mention it until I've seen a private doctor simply because the govt gynae at my local clinic gives me the heebie jeebies
.
Thank you all for the support and taking the time to suggest something. Im off to bed with a hot water bottle!

Hi Nashua Yes, snap! My pelvis sometimes feels like it's being split down the middle too! Horrible feeling, isn't it?!! Try Physiomotion in Duddel St, Central 2525 8168 to see the 2 partners there, Abby or Panda. You might feel worse immediately after the physio (while your pelvis is adjusting to being "reset") but I don't think I'd be walking without the physio!
In the meantime, sleep with a pillow between your legs and try to keep your knees together and pelvis aligned when getting up or moving about. Very best wishes! PM me if you want to chat.

nash, when i was pregnant with my first, my husband gave me the LEAST romantic present imaginable! it was an electric heating pad! it was the LEAST romantic, BUT it has been the MOST useful present ever given!
it just clunked out on me two days ago and hubby went to wing on and got me another one. it was about $600, but it is TOTALLY worth it! i use it with menstrual cramps, my kids ask for it when they have a tummy ache etc. i would NOT have made it through my two pregnancies with out it!!!
maybe ask hubby to head to WING ON to pick one up?
