Doctor wont have me be seen :(

my pubic bones feels like its broken, everytime my baby moves, i feel pressure pushing into my (tmi) butt and vagina. ive been in pain for a week now with severe pressure that seems to only get worse....im 33weeks and i can barely even walk. i can open my legs with out being in terrible pain....now my doctor wants me to have physical therapy. she said its my pelvis opening up. this isnt my first baby. i know my pain :( but like, she wouldnt have me come in and get checked...she just gave advice over the phone......

i tried taking a warm bath, ive tried laying down, ive tried to get active...but im not getting any relief...its only getting worse!!!

what should i do?

well the OB told me that for some reason, women who have ALREADY given birth once will feel this pain during the next pregnancy and that they wont feel it during the first....i swear that hospital has some awesome and smart doctors!

UPDATE- im going to be switching hospitals and going back to the hospital that i gave birth to my daughter in...they had me go straight to maternity and said my uterus is very aggitated. i told them im taking an early maternity leave for next week when im 34 weeks and she said it was a good idea. she said i shouldnt be walking around at all and that i should really take it easy. she took some tests so i have to wait til tmrw to find out anything, but the fact that they had me be seen and took the time to actually CARE, im definitely switching hospitals....

Ive had this same pain with my previous pregnancies and had it with this one a couple days ago but it went away surprisingly. Unfortunately there isnt much that can be done - Ive tried believe me. The only I ever found useful was laying down and find any kind of position to relieve the pain even if just temporary the one minute relief helped a lot before I was shifting again searching for another position.

However, with how certain you sound Id try to go to the ER to check for certain - the hell with the Dr trust your gut.

You could be having preterm labor! What an inconsiderate doctor quite honestly.
