back/pelvic pain during pregnancy?

i am currently 26 weeks pregnant and experiencing pain right below my spine, on the pelvis on the right side, right above my butt.

it doesnt always hurt except when i get up from bed or bend over to get anything, or after i go for long walks in the woods(a couple miles) which i do at least four times a week. (walking necessary for dog and stopping depression)
where the pain is i got injured 3 years ago in a fall. i thought i might have fractured my pelvis at the time, but it healed on it's own, and has only hurt me occasionally until lately with this pregnancy. the pain seems to be getting worse every day. has anyone dealt with this sort of pain before and are there any stretches or exercises that can lessen the pain?

    many women when pregnant have pains like yours – i believe it may be symphysis pubis disorder . its when your joints and ligaments around the pelvic area start to soften and stretch ready for the baby,causing you great discomfort in the meantime.see if u can consult a physiotherapist for advice on stretches etc , if that's too long a wait , you can buy a low slung support belt which will provide external pressure under your baby bump and provide relief.been there too!good luck with the baby!!

    There is much structural change taking place when pregnant. You have to adapt to the different weight bearing to accommodate the increase in the extension of the abdomen.
    One thing you need to become aware of (after the delivery) to make sure that you attempt to reverse the changes that have taken place. Need to get the tail bone back down where it doesn't feel like a table or elevated too high. Most back problems in females originate from this postural change and never having anyone tell them to reverse it.
