My butt is killing me!

My bones…not my anus.

Sitting on the heating pad helps, but it’s only temporary.

I played on the floor a lot today with my grandkids (not willing to give that up, regardless of how sore I am). They’re 3 and 1 so I also lifted them a lot.

Anyone else? Any tips. No matter what I do, I just can’t relieve the ache.

Do you find any supplements to be helpful?

Just curious. I take the usuals, but was wondering if there’s something else I should be using.

65F, and I hurt my pelvic floor over exercising. I haven’t started PT yet, but am scheduled to. I’ve been doing stretches (Dr Bri online) and just find my hips to be so sore afterwards, as well as my abdomen.

This all started with UTI symptoms (no UTI) and those symptoms have subsided (using vaginal estrogen for 5 years and increased usage which has helped).

No leakage at all (thankfully) but just can’t get past this uncomfortable feeling. No constipation issues either.

I do have an appt with a urogyn to be certain I don’t have a prolapse.

Dining has me so confused!

New to Princess and have only cruised one other time (RC). We are sailing on the Sky Princess in July and have the Premier package. This entitles us to 4 casual meals each (I know no reservations are needed).

Regarding eating in the MDRs: on RC, we had a choice of two dining times only, 5 pm. and 8 pm. We selected our time and ate each evening at the same time, with the same people and the same staff.

I am now attempting to pick dining times through the app, under something called "Dine My Way". It's giving me 2 choices of MDRs: Cielo dining room (it indicates private table) and Soleil dining room, where reservations can be made in 20 minute increments with multiple people at each table. I don't see a 3rd option for same time each night, etc. (which is totally fine with us and I'm wondering if Dine My Way has something to do with that because I thought there was a 3rd MDR on this ship).

I guess this is where my confusion lies. Can we pick a different time each night? It looks like that to me. What if we just don't show up and decide instead to go to one of the casual restaurants?

Anything else I should know? Thanks so much!

New to cruising. We disembark in Southhampton on July 18th and are interested in this service to London's Victoria Station (we are staying in that area).

I know we have to book via the cruise line, but can someone explain the logistics? Are we sitting there waiting for buses to fill up before we depart?

I'm just trying to get an idea of how long such a trip takes to Victoria Station.

I suspect I have a tight pelvic floor, and perhaps a mild prolapse. While I'm waiting for an urogyn appt, I've been doing some exercises (Dr. Bri's videos). They seem to be really helping, but my hips feel so sore afterwards and I have pelvic pressure. Is this normal?

I thought I had a UTI but got the all clear. Have had symptoms for months (urgency, burning, but no leaking). I am 65 and have been using vaginal estrogen for months.

Not yet diagnosed, but I suspect I have a mild prolapse. After much reading, I have all the symptoms (no constipation thankfully).

I'm waiting to see a Urogyn and a pelvic PT, and in the meantime, I'm been doing some exercises, breathing, working on my posture, etc. All of that seems to help.

My most constant symptom is this burning feeling which feels like it's at the opening of my vagina.

I'm 65 and have used vaginal estrogen for years and have increased the dosage over the last few weeks. It doesn't seem to alleviate the burn/sting though.

Any suggestions? I'm hesitant to put anything else down there, but am wondering if any other sort of moisturizer would help.
