It is common: If bad enough your OB can have an orthopd see u, if u were my pt. I would offer you elective induction at 39 weeks if u don't go into labor before then, the farther u go the more pain and problems u will most likely have diabetes has nothing to do with the hip pain.

Many possible causes: Numbness can occur from various reasons. Some potential causes include vitamin deficiency, nerve damage, nerve compression, and alcohol over consumption, side effects of different medications, or as a result of different systemic medical conditions. Get evaluated by a professional to determine the exact cause of the neuropathy in order to obtain the best possible treatment.
