A member asked:

Why does it feel like my bones in my pelvic area are completely breaking/stretching apart whenever i remove my legs from being elevated? 39 wks pregnant on monday. is this just my bones relaxing or is this what it feels like to slowly dilate?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

During pregnancy the pelvis prepares for delivery of the baby, & ligaments loosen up & are more flexible, which can feel like what you are describing. It is extremely difficult to break a pelvic bone in a young healthy person, so you should have little worry there. And soon you will have a precious child to enjoy & make it all worthwhile!
