Pregnancy Info HOME

Oh my! I was dropped to my knees by the sudden pain in my groin today. First time ever with this and this is my third pregnancy. I'm 5 1/2 months pregnant and felt great, very active. I raced my 5yr old up 3 flights of stairs in a breeze, no problemo...until I reached the top and took that first step on level ground...ouch!! My eyes watered from the sudden shock and insult of such pain. I'm still in pain as I sit and type this, it's been at least 6 hrs since my initial injury and although I only feel sharp pain when I take a step, I feel the dull throbbing pain withough relief. I'm am relieved to know that this is somewhat common but I cannot possibly conceive of feeling this for the rest of my pregnancy. Ok ok maybe I over did it with the stairs but I learned my lesson and now I need a quick fix!! I guess my dr. was right, "you're not in your twenties anymore."
