Crutches for Pelvic girdle pain?

[LCM5377]

Hi all, has anyone had experience of using crutches during the later stages of pregnancy to cope with Pelvic pain? The physio recommend it to me at 31 weeks and I said no, but a few weeks on and now the pain is getting much worse and more frequent. I'm wondering whether to try them...

Yes I was on crutches during my pregnancy. I would definitely say get them as soon as you can and use them. It definitely helps with the pain. At one point I couldn’t even get to the toilet without them. I hope it gets better for you x

Yes, most definitely get them and use them, I had pgp so bad I ended up on crutches and some days had to use a wheelchair as the pain was unbearable.
