Could be sciatica which I think is quite common in pregnancy

Thankyou for the reply.

Did u ever had such pain in ur pregnancy?

in reply toSabnon

No but during the night I do get really bad buttock/ thigh pains but I think that’s just numbness from the heaviness of bump and I get awful leg and foot cramps. I have heard sciatica can be quite common though xx

As several people have suggested it's probably your sciatic nerve. I had pain down my buttock and upper leg so just tried to take it a bit more easy and it seemed to work as I don't have pain anymore. I was also advised to avoid heels so I've been wearing good shoes. It's probably helped ease the pain too.

Thankyou for your reply. Only thing that concerned me is the pain i am having is just on left buttocks, right side is absolutely fine. Is it due to my sleeping position? Cz i sleep on left side

I would perhaps phone your doctor and just let them know, maybe they can do something to help ease any discomfort xx
