I was thinking, "wow, I'm like getting old"... but why the b*tt??? Anyway, I did a bit of reading, and apparently I have what is called Posterior Pelvic Pain, which is extremely common in pregnancy.
And all this because of Relaxin.....
Relaxin is good in the sense that its function — as you might guess from the name — is to relax the joints in the pelvis so the baby has room to pass through the birth canal. Unfortunately, relaxin also causes abnormal motion in many other joints of the body, causing inflammation and pain.
... and of course my ever increasing girth.
