Pubic symphysis pain: The ligament between the pubic bones (symphysis) softens and stretches in pregnancy in preparation for delivery. Sometimes the resultant laxity can be extreme causing hyper mobility of the symphysis and even separation (diastasis). This can be extremely painful with certain movements, like rolling over in bed. Not much to do now other than heat and rest- it will improve after delivery.
