Sally, me and PGP.
 

Three years ago, I met Sally and she gave me my life back. I suffered with severe PGP in the last trimester of pregnancy, and was only pain free 8 months post partum. Now, I am a volunteer for the Pelvic Partnership, and last November I had the privilege of chatting with her on their behalf. 

The knowledge Sally shared so freely with the Pelvic Partnership will hopefully help a great number of women suffering with pregnancy related Pelvic Girdle  Pain (symphysis pubis dysfunction). We talked about:

• What PGP is. 
• The common symptoms.
• Treatment methods.
• How it impacts you physically.
• The impact on your mental health.
• It's impact on day-to-day lifestyle.
• Birth planning.
• How long you could suffer with PGP.
• Subsequent pregnancy advice.
• Advice for people with PGP.
