Pubic bone pain in pregnancy is also know as Pubic Symphysis Diastasis. The hormone relaxin causes the pelvis, particularly at the pubic bone, to loosen as the baby grows. Relaxin is a good thing because it makes birth easier for mom and baby. Sometimes the separation is exaggerated and can become quite painful.
You may notice this pain when rolling over in bed, walking, standing or trying to move your legs apart like stepping into pants or the car. Most of the pain is typically centered up front in the pubic bone area. Some typical symptoms are pinpoint pain at the pubic bone, groin muscle pain to the sides of the pubic bone sometimes shooting down the inside of the thigh. When the public bone is misaligned (or subluxated) it can also cause referral pain into the sacroiliac joint (located in your low back along the area where you would have a seam on your pants pocket).
Treatment by a chiropractor will realign the pelvis and Pubic Symphysis thereby relieving the sharp stabbing and shooting pains. Chiropractic is safe and gentle for Mom and the baby and relief is usually felt immediately. Dr. Julia Mason specializes in Pubic Symphysis Diastasis. You do not need to suffer from this pain.
