I was literally in tears from the pain I was having on my lower back and right side of my waist and getting very frustrated with how this pain has robbed my sleep. I did most of these stretches you showed us and the worst of pain was gone within minutes! I’m going to keep doing them to prevent and manage whatever pains come my way from now on! 30 weeks down, 10 more to go!💖 thank you so much!!!!

It's such a very hard pain it's make m cry 😭 Allah make it easy for all pregnant women s

38 weeks and can’t sleep so I’m binge watching all pregnancy videos! Love watching your videos!!!💕💕💕

“The seated hip opener” helped soooo much with SPD (pelvic pain). My right leg felt so stuck I could hardly do the stretch but little by little stretched it more and more. I got up to walk after doing this about 15 minutes and WOW! So much relief after dealing with the pain all day. Sending love to all those dealing with this type of pain. No one understands except for the ones who have dealt with it.

Your explanation of pain is exactly my thinking. All the nurses at the office said take Tylenol. I said no thanks I want to solve the problem not cover it up.

Omg I have been in so much pain the past 3 days. Hurt to stand, sit, walk, sleep and everything! These made me feel SO much better! Thank you so much Bridget! 🙌

I work in physical therapy and I recommend all of these exercises for my patients with low back pain-who knew the same could be applied in pregnancy too! Thanks for the video 👍🏻

25 Weeks now and been walking like a penguin because of this😢 thank goodness I find this video. Gotta try this out and hoping to lessen the pain I feel✨

Bridget, Girl your knowledge and videos are right on time! 37 weeks and the pelvic pain is out of control. I'm running to my pregnancy ball now! Thank you so much.

This! This is the video you need. I told my doctor about the pain I was having and they didn't do /say ANYTHING about it. Didn't even make a note! It's been going on since my 2nd trimester and had only gotten worse. I'm at 36 weeks now and I'm so thankful I found this video 😩❤️❤️❤️

How's it going ? Are you guys okay ?

This is incredibly helpful! I’ve been struggling since week 14 (they said the baby has been in my hips because I also haven’t gotten much of a belly) and it’s only gotten worse. My doctor refuses to help me and hasn’t given even a little bit of advice. I’m currently 33 weeks and feeling crippled so I’m praying it’ll give me some relief

I found out I have SPD after seeing this video and going to my chiropractor!! These stretches are seriously working for me. I'm doing them nightly and doing sooooo much better than I was so THANK YOU for not just saying "oh it'll get worse, just deal with it!"

After doing one round each of exercises number 4 &5, I go from barely being able to walk to walking normally again. SO thankful for this video!

Ahh nah I can’t lay on the floor, I’ll get stuck again & won’t be able to move LMAOO

25 weeks FTM and I’ve been having tightness in my glute medius on one side! I’ve had some slight clicking since my first ACL repair and having this extra weight has really highlighted that. Working on stretching and loosening that muscle has been great and these are some awesome modifications. Definitely something I’ll work on post baby so I can be more prepared for my next pregnancy! Thanks for the tips!

Bridget, you are a God-send! I just started my 24th week and have been struggling with PGP. After talking to some of my friends, they said it gets worse at 8 months. I just couldn't wrap my head around dealing with the pain and imagining how it will intensify as my pregnancy progresses. I really thought I just have to suffer through it but after watching this video, I'm RELIEVED knowing it's my body telling me to do something different. I will definitely start doing these tips. Thank You!

Finaly someone who explains exactely what i have been feeling since two months, but not beeing able to describe it properly. Thank you so so much for the beautiful and extremely beneficial content. 🥰🥰

You are reading my mind with your last few uploads. I am 37 weeks today and trying to manage outer hip pain while all the chiropractors are closed. This is a big help. Thank you

38 weeks and I'm so glad i found this 👏

Bridget you are literally a God send with your content!! I can’t believe it’s free! I tell every pregnant mom about your channel.

I got instant relief after trying these movements during this video alone!! Thank you so much! 😭

37 weeks and I was in so much pain! Thank you so much! I still have pain but I felt such a relief with this exercises!

Thank you!!! I did some of these stretches the past few days and my hip pain has greatly diminished. I feel a lot better and able to do more! ❤️

I had this pain for more than 2 weeks.. and with 2 sets of these exercises it reduced 20-30% .. thank you so so much! ❤️❤️❤️

Hi! I’m 30 weeks and these just made me feel instant relief right now! My pelvic region was on fire! 😅 I’ll keep doing these. Thank you so much!

Ive been miserable all day and I found this video and did the stretches. I already feel a lot a less tense and tight everywhere 😭 thank you!! I’m gonna do this the rest of my pregnancy

Thank you so much ! I’m 30 weeks and pelvic pain is no joke !! I’m constantly having my husband help me do things it’s frustrating for me . I just order the belt you recommended 😊 and going to be a mermaid from now on !! Thank you again !!

I have had this pain for a few weeks on and off - all the books say “do nothing, rest” which I just knew couldn’t be the only way. I even saw an chiropractor for $120 and she just massaged me, no advice for movements 😐I’m so glad I came across this video. Motion is the lotion!

I'm 39 +6 today, I'm going to try these exercises as soon as I mermaid my way out bed lol, the pelvic pain is no joke. I've noticed it helps to not stay in any one position for too long (30 mins is my limit😅). I'm constantly stretching, swaying, bouncing on my ball, walking etc.

I've been there!! One thing I've learned is how helpful a strong pelvic floor is. Engage that floor before doing moving!

You are a great educator! Thank you for including what trimesters this is appropriate for and signs to watch out for when doing the movements. I appreciate your positivity to not accept pain as normal. Love the encouragement to be proactive!! I am sharing your video!!

You are amazing and such a ray of sunshine! Thank u so much for sharing this helpful info with us Mamas to be! I’m 31 weeks and this is going to be so helpful for my back pain. Have a wonderful and happy day Bridget!

37 weeks here and what a relief to do these exercises ! Thanks alot

Thank you for your videos. You helped me go into labor with my firstborn without fear. I am so happy with my first experience, especially it being unmedicated. Thank you for your encouragement and soothing reassurances!

35 weeks and I'm so glad I found this! Can't wait to start doing this daily. My left hip is in constant pain along with other small pains. Seeing my chiropractor weekly now is absolutely amazing but having this for the in between days will make life so much better!

This was so helpful 😭 I’m 21 weeks in and just experienced this pain first time today and I almost cried. I tried some of these exercises and now feel a little better. 😭💖

The exercise movement actually works!!! I felt a pop and the pain on my left lower hip area instantaneously went away!!! Thank you!!!

Felt relief 15 minutes after doing the exercises! Thank you. I can walk with much ease now.

Excellent video. Very well made. Concise, straight to the point, great visuals. I need this in my first trimester, but glad to have it now that the pain and tightness has returned.

Definitely needed this video! Thank you so much!!

What a well made video. I loved the explanations and the demonstrations. Such a treat to watch! Thank you so much.

Bridget, you're an amazing birth doula. Thank you so much for the advice you gave. God bless you

this really helpful! I am 28 weeks now, and i started to feel sitting bone pain 2 weeks ago, it was so painful that I could not walk properly, I actively looking for solution to ease the pain, and I am very glad that I found your video yesterday, I tried all the 7 exercises yesterday and today, my muscles are a little sour, but my pain is relieved and I can start to walk now with my belly support belt. I plan to try this exercise everyday and stay away from sitting bone pain. I like what you said "you can enjoy your pregnancy again"! Thank you.

I am due any day now with our second baby , all your videos answer and comfort all my questions worries fears concerns !!! Thank You so much for all videos you do they truly are helpful I wouldn’t be in the state of mind I am now if I had never watched any of your videos , I feel calmer and ready to do it again !

Love your videos! Could you do a video talking about wrist pain and swollen ankles and feet and how to relieve or reduce them. I’m 37 weeks pregnant and these symptoms recently started and keep getting worst. Thank you💞

Hey Bridget! Heres a really great exercise that I learned through my Physical Therapist, a great modification for third tri mommas like me with really severe back problems (for example...herniated discs with leg nerve impingement and spine arthritis from a previous car wreck that makes my cane my best friend at 35) is a great one to do paired with that adductor squeeze. Still sitting at the edge of the couch, put the squishy ball under one foot and while pressing your foot steadily into it, ensuring you are engaging the whole leg (visualize squishing the ball down equally and flat like a pancake) lift the opposite knee up (with your hand putting light resistance on it) and hold for 3-6 seconds. Release slowly and then switch sides and repeat. Made a huge difference in relieving pubic dysfunction pain and strengthens/stretches those hip abductors and knee stabilizing muscles too!

I’m 40 weeks and 3 days pregnant and today was the first time I felt extreme back pain. Your video has helped so much - thank you!

This is exactly what I needed

I just want to say thank you so much for posting this video. I've had tremendous back pain since the start of my pregnancy & last night I did these stretches. I've had 0 pain all day today. All thanks to you😊

Thank you so much I’m so glad I found this video I am hurting so bad I’m going to try these stretches tomorrow!

You’re so intelligent and helpful thanks for doing this 😍

I am actually not pregnant but I have an ovarian cyst of approximately 40 pounds, which feels like a 11 months pregnancy. The belt really helped me for I while but my belly is now too big to fit it!

Feels good so far! Thanks, Bridget!!!

All of your videos have been an awesome help! I’m a ftm and 36+2 weeks. My pelvic pain is worse when I lay in one position for a long period of time. Especially on the right side😪, it will also pop sometimes which hurts. Lower back pain is mild for the most part. Thank you for all of your help!!

THANK YOU SO MUCH! I am now 38 weeks and that pelvic pain is honestly soooooo awful !! I feel it more in my inner thigh and it stops me from doing almost all my everyday movements! The mermaid movements is such a straight forward solution and I am so grateful to you for introducing it to me! But is there a reason why I would only feel pain in my left side and not my right?

This is helpful! I'm 23 weeks and my lower back in so much pain..I wld sometimes just lay and cry. I tried some of this stretches last night and this morning my lower back feels great!!

Thank you and bless you!

The windmill!!!!!! Omg that brought me so much relief! It got my tight upper back muscles as well that I’ve been having the hardest time getting to. Thank you!

Nice to have this pointed out. Had certainly noticed I can’t just twist and stick 1 leg out got to rush less and be more purposeful when changing position

Thank you for your valuable information

Im 22 weeks and my hips/glutes have gotten soo sore I can't sleep. These stretches are a life saver. I'm glad I found them now and can get on top of this well before labour. This is my third pregnancy and labour with this additional pain would make things soo much more difficult

35 weeks and I have found very warm/hot showers + stretching in the shower and afterwards helps tremendously. Also, prenatal massages and chiropractor!!!!

I was in PAIN every second of the day.. I did this stretching movements and wow! I feel relieve AMAZING (32 weeks pregnant)

Feeling so much better thank you!

Bridget, you are amazing! Your tips are great. Thank you very much for your videos!

You are sent from heaven thank god a lady sent me your video my back feels so much better, I am typing this after I finished these stretches THANK YOU SO MUCH YOU ARE AMAZING GOD BLESS YOU❤❤❤❤❤❤❤

I've been watching your videos since my pregnancy started and I cant believe I missed this one. So helpfull with my PGP. Up untill now I could not explain my doctor what type of pain I was feeling, i Even thought I was the only one haha thank u!!

i needed this because as soon as i hit 6 months it became super uncomfortable to do anything because of the pelvic pain. my daily walks got shorter and nothing i was doing was helping. hopefully these help get rid of the pain.

Thanks so much!!! The mermaid movements are everything to me! Was having a lot of discomfort and pain in my right hip realizing that I favor my right side. Even the stretches really help too. I love to stay active but the pain was slowing me downa lot. Thanks for this video your info really helped me a lot 😊🎉!

I’m almost 36 weeks with a huge heavy belly I can’t do any of these except the last one and that one felt very good. I’m glad I stuck through the video just in case

Thanks!! 13 years ago my doctor was saying there's nothing you can do about sciatica pain .... Thankfully i found out otherwise. I still occasionally have that pain thanks for the exercises. I'll give these a try

Thank you so much for this video.This is what i really need now.Thanks for sharing 😍
