All week I've seen a dead duck up the garden and I decided to go investigate it, when I got there I discovered it was actually dead grass from when I was mowing the lawn on Sunday!! Here is the link between the duck and the SPD... Mowing the garden often kicks of my SPD, but thus far boys and girls, I'm fine. (symphysis pubis dysfunction or SPD)
So, what causes it, well..."We are not sure exactly what causes SPD, but it's thought that if one side of the pelvis moves more than the other when you walk or move your legs, the area around the symphysis pubis becomes tender (Buyruk et al 1999; Damen et al 2001). The amount of discomfort isn't related to the size of the gap in the joint. Many women with a normal-sized gap feel a lot of pain."
So there you have it, taken from www.babycentre.co.uk
