Background summary
About 80 percent of all pregnant women in the Netherlands experience an episode
of pelvic pain. In a few of them the pain becomes chronic. This leads to the
disability to perform normal tasks in daily life such as personal care of
taking care of the children of the ability to go back to work.
There is little insight in the factors which are responible for the
chronification of pregnancy related pelvic girdle pain. This is only known for
previous lumbar pain before pregnancy. It is likely that there are more factors
of influence for the chronification of pain. The purpose of this study is to
identify them.

related pelvic girdle pain.
