Scoliosis - Introduce yourself and meet others

Thankyou everyone for your advice! I probably should have mentioned my spinal curve starts at my pelvis and bends to the left, my pelvis is at different heights so I have one longer leg by about 2cms. And also I was told that it has a twist (outward) at the middle of my back and at my neck. They told me when I was 13 I might have trouble giving birth naturally because the opening is off Centre. This is why I was wondering if it could be causing all those problems in my pelvic region!

you are probably much worse than me, but I got kicked in the back by my sister when I was about 10 and the start of my back problems, Its only ever been noted when Ive had other xrays etc. that I have a twisting scoliosis. [about 8yrs ago] prior to that it was only reported as scoliosis and spurs on the thoracic level. Apart from seeing my physio , I basically see that my software[ muscles] keep the hardware [bones] as straight and strong as possible. Resting during bad times and pushing to the extreme during the good times. do you do swimming so that you are exercising with no weight bearing??
as for natural birth, babies are pretty squishy during birth, and unless its really narrow [ your obstetrician] will know if its going to be a planned bypass or a have a go level of difficulty
