Currently week 30, may have SPD.

Hi there, curtently week 30 and I suspect I may have symphysis pubis dysfunction (SPD).. is this any immediate cause for concern? I'm only seeing my gynae next Monday. The middle of my pelvic is sore whenever I try to stand up from a sleeping position. But after walking awhile, it's fine. Same with trying to put on pants..

OH Caroline

Hoping for a child

SPD is actually quite common in pregnancy, so try not to panic, but do call your gynae's clinic and describe your symptoms rather than waiting until Monday, just to get their advice sooner. In the meantime, keep your knees together when turning in bed or putting on pants, it really does help reduce that sharp pain.
