I really hope you don't have any pain during labor due to your injury. It's not easy caring for a newborn with this kind of pain. It's especially worse if you are nursing.Originally Posted by twstychik
Several years ago (like 10ish) i managed to pull all the tendons/ligaments between my tailbone and hips. It took forever to heal and I couldn't sit for several days. In fact it still gives me trouble and even more now that I'm 8 months pregnant. The extra weight and pressure on my pelvis makes some days sitting at a desk for 7 hours unbearable. For this type of injury donuts don't work very well. Donuts are made more for hemroids and the tail bone sits behind that area meaning that even on a donut, your tailone is still sitting on the donut and supporting your weight. I have a memory foam neck pilow (more of a U shape) that I sit on at work and it helps a lot. I'm very worried about what labor/delivery are going to do to it though and I completly expect to have a lot of pain because of it.
Good luck and congratulations!
