Thigh pain third trimester

Question

I am experiencing outer thigh pain for the past few weeks.. Am 32 weeks now with very achy thighs. Its very painful when I walk and stretch out my legs on the bed. It affects outer thighs. The medical term isMeralgia paresthetica. Does anyone have this problem too? Does it go away after delivery?

I’m experiencing it too at 29 weeks and now I’m 30 weeks. My mum told me it’s normal because your baby is growing inside the tummy but it hurts. I work in a preschool setting and I’m taking care of 24 months old children where I need to be seated on the floor..I even ask my husband and mum to massage but it doesn’t go away. Hopefully during and after delivery it will go away 😥
