A Pain in the Butt

For some odd reason, my butt (specifically the tailbone area) has been hurting something awful for the past week or so. I can't sit for more than a few minutes and it even hurts to laugh or sneeze. I've had no injuries or anything and I can't figure out why it hurts so much. I am almost wondering if I have a pinched nerve or something pressing somewhere as I've heard pregnant women can get. However, I always aassumed it was because of pressure from weight gained, but I've only gained maybe a couple of pounds. I have an OBGYN appt Monday, so I plan to ask my doctor about it (and hope to hear the heart beat too!) I can't go on like this. All I want to do it sit and I can't. Anyone have any advice?

Ouch, that sounds painful! I hope you have a great OB appointment and will get to hear that wonderful little heartbeat!

Yay for getting to hear the heartbeat tomorrow!!! It made it feel SO much more real and "official" to us. It's a truly AMAZING moment. I can't wait to hear all about it! The tailbone issue ~ maybe use a heating pad?
