- Pubic symphysis dysfunction occurs in approximately 1 in 300 pregnant women. Things that I found helped : Belly band support or KT taping. Sleeping in reclined position. Kegel exercises. Lots of pillows between the legs if I'm going to sleep on my side. Ice.
Let me know if you guys are experiencing this and what you've been doing to manage it?
If you guys have any questions - I'd love to answer them in the comment section down below.
Wyatt and I and fairly active on instastories. Follow us @dr.jennale if you are interested in more behind the scenes of medicine/hospital and home life!

All my pregnant mama’s watching - how many weeks are you and what symptoms are you experiencing!
Jenny Le, currently 32 weeks (and a couple days) with my first!
experiencing A LOT of hip pain
baby is on my nerve so my legs and back always hurt which prevents me from being able to walk properly.
also, very swollen ankles and legs.
Let’s just say, i am excited to get her out!
Praying for a safe & easy delivery for you! May you and your family continue to be blessed.
xoxo
Oh no that sounds horrible. I find the warm epsom salt baths and pregnancy massages help. If you can find a physician that does OMT (osteopathic manipulative treatment) they can help with realignment too.
Jenny Le : love ur update video . Can u make a video about circumvallate placenta. Please. I’m on my 23 week
Patients with circumvallate placenta I refer to my OBGYN colleges just because it’s considered high risk. I don’t think I have enough knowledge on the topic to do it justice. I would definitely talk to your OB if you still have questions and concerns. That’s what they’re there for!
Jenny Le :thank you for your reply .
This was such a great demonstration. I’m so ready, I’m 36 weeks today. Much love to all the mommas during this pandemic. ❤️
36 weeks pregnant you described exactly how i feel.
I could barely walk yesterday and all i could say was it feels like period cramps.
Yes just like period cramps
Just found out last week I was pregnant, I’m about 5 almost 6 weeks pregnant now ! Excited to feel this baby grow 🥰
The demonstration about pubic pain was amazing!
It’s exactly how I’m feeling 😭
@@drjennale Awww😣
Exactly how I'm feeling at 36 weeks now.
That's how I'm feeling at 35 weeks
Come through Dr. Jenny with demonstrations!!! They were everything!!!! Thank you for sharing your wisdom!!
that was such a good demonstration! You're an amazing teacher!
Hi Jenny, I’m a pre-med and I love watching your videos!! I’m currently shadowing some doctors for the summer and I realized how important it is for doctors to be good teachers because they’ll always be explaining things to residents, med students, patients, etc. So that said, I think you perfectly exemplified the image of a doctor being a good teacher. Thank you for illustrating it in a way that most people can understand!
I remember when you were pregnant with Wyatt and I was so excited about it it’s so crazy seeing how big he’s getting and now I’m all pumped up for this new addition to your beautiful family!!!
Girl I’m so excited too!! Thanks for sticking by me for this long.
I’m currently 36 weeks now with baby #3 and I absolutely loved the demonstration I’m a visual learner. So excited to meet baby girl 💗
Time has flown by! It feels like you had just announced that you were pregnant a few weeks ago and now you are so close to giving birth! Also, thanks for the demonstrations. I find them very neat and it helps visualize things.
This pregnancy has felt like it’s gone by really fast! Maybe because I’m working more 🤷🏻♀️
Great analogy and visual! You are so funny! Your son is precious! I wish you a swift and event free, comfortable (?) labor!💖You are a natural teacher, and nurturer!
That is the sweetest!! During medical training, I quickly learned that doctors who are good teachers connected better with their patients.
36 weeks pregnant this really helped I’m glad I found this video!
Your demonstration of contractions and labor was so informative. Thanks Jenny Le!
Yay! 🤓👍🏼
That pain you describe is EXACTLY what I have right at this moment. I wonder what position your little one was in because I think my daughter is doing the exact same thing! I know walking is healthy at this point in my pregnancy but I am so unmotivated because it just HURTS. Glad I am not the only one having the pain right THERE makes me feel better knowing others have had the same, thank you!
Helpful explanations (esp since I’m starting obgyn rotations soon), and happy bday to Stan!
Oh the miracle of life 😬 I know you’re considering FM but are you interested in OBGYN too?
Jenny Le I feel special you remembered 😂. I’m not sure- it’s still my third year rotation. I don’t think I’d do it exclusively since I’d like to work with guys too, but maybe some obgyn’s will change my mind.
I do feel preceptors can influence your outlook on a specialty a lot! I’m sure you’ll enjoy the rotation. Good luck!
Jenny Le That’s very true. Thank you!
Thanks so much for the illustration! They were very helpful! Medical student here - you should do more of them!
I’ll keep that in mind! It’s actually rather difficult to think of demonstrations!
Wishing you the best for your new baby! I was in labor for 3 days I had all back labor so I didnt realize I was in labor and had had back surgery so I just thought the pain was from that. My son was born healthy and happy
Oh my gosh 3 days!
thank you for this! I'm 36 weeks and 4 days. first pregnancy. I have HORRIBLE heartburn/acid reflux / indigestion, lighting crotch rlly bad, belly dropped, some contractions, swollen and crampy n sensitive and lots of pubic pain too!!! + insomnia. getting induced at 39 weeks. GBS negative
Love the including of medicine! I’m 28 weeks and want to be somewhere in the medical field. It’s nice to see what others experience and just learn even if I don’t experience around the same !
That’s awesome!! So many great fields in medicine that people don’t think of like radiology techs, occupational or physical therapist, MA/PA/NPs, etc. I hope you find the field that best suits you 👩🏻⚕️👍🏼
Omg I so needed that visual of the pubic bone to show my husband! I keep telling him too and he doesn’t really understand. I’m having twins and Baby A is breech and her butt is literally sitting right in my pelvis and it’s sooooo painful to get up and walk and roll over in bed or anything. Just a couple more weeks of this but I’m feeling so done! 😭😭
Im 36 weeks approaching 37 weeks &i get checked for dilation tomorrow.. I've been having a lot of the same symptoms as you and ive also been sleeping on the couch lol my pubic bone area has been giving me so much pain. I can't wait to see if I'm dilated 😊
Thank you so much for this video! I am currently 38 wks and 4 days due date is next Friday 9/20. Expecting my first baby and he’s a boy, so excited but I haven’t been able to sleep on my sides at all even with pillows and it’s been extremely painful. Everybody I talked to looked at me crazy because I told them I have to sleep in the recliner it helps soo much. Glad to know the condition has a name: Pubic Symphysis Disorder! Thank you so much
Good luck! I'm due on 9/30 with first baby. I have not started dilating though. I can't wait to finally meet my princess! 💕
Howd it go guys?
@@aurorakelly1100 my baby girl was born on Sept 29th. My labor was very rough, spent 31 hours in labor and ended up getting a csection but I'm so happy my baby is very healthy 🙏❤
@@pattycakes9321 bummer that it went rough but I'm glad everything worked out! 😊 Good luck in parenthood!
@@aurorakelly1100 thank you! 😊💕
The demonstration is everything!!! This is exactly what I feel, it’s hard to walk. I have to take my time but no contractions..I don’t think lol as this is my 1st baby
I’m 36 weeks almost 37 weeks. I can’t wait to meet my baby. 🙂😀
Them checking my cervix was the worst pain, worse than contractions...
Ciyerrah Villanueva no warning ⚠️ they just go all in ... and it’s very uncomfortable
Lol I'm laughing so hard, "yeah and sometimes baby just shoots out like that" 😂😂😂
I'm 36 weeks today, and I love the way you explained the contractions using the balloon. Very helpful👌
36 weeks! So close!! You got this mama
@@drjennale what are the chances for an early delivery? I've been doing light exercises, walking 3km every alternate day and using my physio ball to do kegel exercises....?
Really enjoyed the demonstration! Good luck to all of you as you go thru the remainder of your pregnancy and delivery! You’re still looking fantastic! Can’t wait to see Wyatt’s first reaction to London.
Thank you!! We’re really excited to see how Wyatt reacts too
I’m 35 weeks and this was actually a really good video so glad I watched this I learnt something 🤗
I'm 36 weeks currently and I find it hard to sleep cause of the pains I have when lying down either on my left or right. The pubic pain is so real and I feel you. My tummy is super tight too and a little bit of pain associated with it. I have my OB appointment on Wednesday to see if I'm dilated or not.
I feel same way.. 1m 36week + some days and I can barely walk nor sit,.. The public pain is very severe and serious.. I can barely sleep as well😭😭
I’m 36 weeks, been checked twice and have not dilated 😭 OB said “nope, very closed still 😊” lol
This video and the demonstration you included was spot on with describing what I am experiencing at my 36 weeks and it has really put me at ease. Thank you so much!
I’m 36 weeks pregnant and that demonstration had ME hurting 😆 Reality just set in...Great vlog!
I'm 36 weeks with my first and I'm just a ball of pain. Pubic pain, back pain, rib pain, feet pain, lower ab pain.. maaan I'm just ready for this to be over 😭
Phumi Zuma i am 9 weeks with my second and i am constantly puking and nauseous...i also am just ready for this to be over 😂😂😂😂
Me to ughh I'm 34weeks I'm ready to feel norm again. Um having my son Jun 15 hopefully I can have him a lil bfore that. Can't wait to meet him
Super helpfull. Thnks

Edit:
Hey mine is baby girl..she is now 50 days.maashaallaah😊
Congratulations! And yay!! You’re almost there 👶🏻❤️
I'm 36 wks today.. excited also.. 🙏
Omg!
The balloon was great! I wish you were my instructor, lol. Thank you once again for being REAL.. my baby used to throw my sheets off the bed too🤣
I don’t know how anyone’s house stays clean with a toddler around 😭
The most informative and inspiring! God bless you and your family! ❤❤❤
Glad you found it useful 😊
Im 37 weeks and my back is killing me and my ankles are huge and this pelvic pain is terrible but i love ur video its great
Thank you for the demonstration with the balloon it was very informative. I had three children and didn’t really understand how to cervix dilates in the enfacements softens. It was very informative. Thanks.❤
Thank you so much , amazing content and insightful update , wish u have a safe and easy delivery and i will look forward to your next video ( im 34 weeks pregnant and im fining your videos really helpful )
34 weeks!! That’s so close. We’re at the home stretch. So exciting.
38 weeks and very impatiently waiting for baby girl!
These demonstrations were super helpful!!! I’m currently 32 weeks with my first child and I feel I still have so much to learn about what’s actually going on with my body lol so thank you!!!
Congratulations!
Hi I'm 33wks and 6 days👶🍼❤ my worst symptom is baby laying on a nerve which cause pain in my left upper front thigh, it burns, stings and gets numb😫 but it's all worth it for a beautiful baby girl😍 good luck to you and your family🍼👶❤
Sounds like meralgia paresthetica! You should try wearing a belly band to support baby girl up a bit!
@@drjennale Thank you so much, my Drs are nice but never told me to try that❤ , it only happens when I'm standing for too long😫
Baby girl could definitely be pressing on the lateral femoral cutaneous nerve. Wearing tight pants around the hips can cause that too. Try the belly band and let us know if it helps!
@@drjennale 😉❤ thanks for the info, I really appreciate it💖
You look amazing & I love that this video is so educational. Absolutely love the demonstrations. Super excited for your second child!
I’m glad you enjoyed it! 😊 we’re super excited to baby number 2 too! Ready for him to come already.
Hi Jenny! I just want to tell you how much I admire you. I find your vlogs very interesting and informative and you have a beautiful spirit.
I always thought I would be a doctor growing up and then my older brother did become one. I remember him calling home weekly during med school and expressing how hard and stressful it was, sometimes crying. I decided I no longer wanted to go that route, but studied psychology instead and worked in behavioral health for a number of years before deciding to return to school for nursing. I just graduated this year and am now practicing in psych emergency nursing.
Thank you for your transparency. Even though I was not a med student, your vlogs have helped inspire me, esp preparing for nursing boards. Your genuine love and care for your patients and family is evident! I wish you the best as you prepare to welcome your new little one ❤️
Also, this is random but your voice is so soothing lol like ASMR 😂
Awww that is so sweet. Thank you! I’m glad you found your way in medicine. We need more psych providers!
Hey Jenny! So excited for you & Stan! I love the demonstration; it was fabulous. Take it easy and know we are all wishing you well! God bless! :) P.S. Happy birthday Stan!!!
I had to use to little pelvis to show Stan before he understood what I was saying 😂 glad you liked it !
Idk why but the balloon demonstration made me crack up 😆
I’m 36 weeks and been having some sharp pains lower part of my abdomen, hip and leg pains.
Just started watching and can't wait to see ur lil precious one on videos 😍 many blessings to you 💞💕
We’re excited to meet him too! 👶🏻❤️
I’m 38 weeks right now and I definitely feel pubic pain 😩
Love love love the demonstration, happy birthday Stan !!!!!!! Jenny your amazing and beautiful ❤️❤️❤️❤️
I’m 36 weeks!! & this was a great demonstration! 😣😭
36 weeks definitely feeling the stretching!
Hi Jenny, how are you doing on this very nice day? Thanks for this excellent video, and for taking the time, effort, and expense to create it. You are amazing, Jenny. Have a good and peaceful day my friend, fist bump : )
The suns been out so making the most of this family of 3 before it turns into a family of 4!
This is so me watching your video after 2 years this helped me so much ,my pelvis is on fire 🥲but thankfully l understand better from now thanks hey ❤️
Jenny, I loved the example with the balloon and the ball. And I chuckled when the ball shot out like that. I wish you all the best mama. And happy birthday to Mr. Stanley over there holding down the fort.
I totally blew up the balloon too much and was afraid it was going to explode in my face 😂
Loved that demonstration lol it was a great way to explain what’s going on
I had to use these demos with Stan too before he was able to understand what I was talking about 😅
You are GLOWING Dr. Jenny! Love you!!
😊 thank you!! It may also be my highlight lol
I'm 36 weeks today ❤
I am 36 weeks and this was super helpful, thank you!
Thanks for the demonstration now I feel like I understand! I’m 36 weeks so ready for baby to come out
35 weeks and experiencing round ligament pain, shortness of breath, and fatigue.
So excited for you, Jenny. Don’t count on going early, though, or those last days/weeks seem like FOREVER if you don’t. I was told the same when I was having lots of Braxton Hicks and dilated to 3cm at 36 weeks .....but still had to wait those last miserable weeks. So glad Stan is helping you rest as much as you can. Happy Birthday Stan!
That’s what one of my friends told me too! She was having lots of Braxton Hicks and still ended up 6 days late 😭😭😭 I do feel like my contractions are getting stronger though ... does that make a different? Lol
I really like the balloon demo you did. It helped explain. I have had 2 kids never knew all that. Thanks
It’s amazing what our bodies can go through! Glad you enjoyed it 🤓❤️
Love your demonstration 😸
I loved that demonstration 🙏🏻🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️
36w3d I have a lot of nausea. Hip pain, back pain, painful Braxton hicks, my crotch hurts and I guess that's because I feel pressure. I have not been checked for dilation. My obgyn gave me the option to check or no and Ideclined. Haha I wish I wouldn't have but I got nervous. Due July 16!
Amazing demonstration!
Glad you liked it! Could have gone totally wrong 😅
Amazing demonstration I finally understand the terminology 👏🏼
It's amazing how fast Wyatt is growing (also how fast your pregnancy is progressing). Best luck to you and sending good vibes for a fast labor and safe delivery. Please keep up posted!
Will do 😬
Love your videos !! And the explanation ! I feel like I learn more from you than I do from my school lectures sometimes lol
Thanks! 😬 it’s really heard to retain information when it just comes from a text book. At least for me!
Even my own ob doctors lol
I’m 36 weeks and caught a cold. I have pelvic pain, and mini contractions. My first pregnancy and I feel like I’m dying. 😭😭😭
The pube pain is the pits! Been experiencing it since 19 weeks I'm 35 weeks now and it's worse. Esp when my iron is low. Iron+calc+magnesium has helped a great deal.
Im 34 weeks and 5 days
Having a lot of contractions specially at night time from 32 weeks but now its getting more painful 2 or 3 times at night and 3 in day times
37 weeks today❤ excited to meet my rainbow baby girl
I am totally feeling the same pain in my pelvis :( I'm 36 weeks almost 37 it hurts
Incredibly helpful and informal video!
I'm almost 22 weeks and have to take progesterone shots every week, and she is already a little big girl, I have two other kids at home still
Omg...I started laughing about how the ball came out. Lol, I'm not gunna lie, I had my ears covered, thinking it was going to pop. because I've been terrified of balloons since I was very small.
I'm so glad I found this. Last year I labored all in my pelvis area, barely in my back. They had to insert a contraction monitor inside just to find my contractions. It felt like I had to pee the whole night, but like the really really have to go where you feel like you could burst at any moment. It was the worse. This year I'm pregnant again and I can barely walk and its all in the front area.
I am also diagnosed with pubic symphysis as well. It’s soooooo painful!😩 I can definitely relate
I’m 36 weeks and 4 days. I feel the exact same thing in the sense of the baby coming down in my cervix..the pelvic pain
Great demonstration
I’m 36 weeks as of tomorrow but I only feel heavy af and a lot of movement from him
Wow great visual presentation!!!!
Thanks 😬
just subscribed… love your channel and thank you
Are herbal teas okay to drink while pregnant? I always find articles stating you shouldn't.
Which herbal teas would be okay if any? Is there an ingredient that should be avoided? 🤔
you shouldn't...
That demonstration was great. Thank you 😊
I am also 36 weeks now and have the same symptom you have. Also, I just have aching rib going on last couple nights ago. Really painful!
Have you been sleeping in a reclined position? I fell like that has been the only position I have been able to sleep in.
i was lucky my doctor was on call both time 😊 hopefully this time too🤞🏽
WOW...you’re amazing!!! I’m pregnant with my 6th baby and couldn’t articulate it better than you!! Wow love your channe already...#newsubscriber
6th? just stop damn.
@kween YES 6th hater!!! And VERY PROUD!!! 🤗🤗🤗🤗🤗
kween x It’s amazing how rude people will be when they can safely hide behind a screen and a keyboard. 🤣It’s absolutely none of your business how many kids someone does or doesn’t have unless you’re the one paying their bills. And that’s CLEARLY not the case here. 🤷🏻♀️
Omg!!! I’m 33 weeks and I’m feeling exactly the same symptoms 😓😓
I think physically I’m weaker with this pregnancy. The muscles are just not holding the ligaments in place ... or just too much relaxin hormone 😭
I'm 36weeks n 2days,only problem I'm facing is heartburn.its unbearable
Excellent demonstration
That is a perfect visual aid demonstration!!
The pubic lessons were superb. Thank you
I am 35weeks preg but i think baby is still breech according to my last appointment :( plz tell what to do to flip the baby
Sehrish Riaz OBs or Doctors are supposed to try to flip your baby to proper position if still breeched could schedule you an emergency C section
I’m almost 36 weeks 2 more days & I PRAY I’m dilated anythinggg please lord lol.
