At 39 weeks, symphysis pubis diastasis

Patient's question:

Pregnant 39 weeks with pubic bone pain, unable to turn over at night while sleeping. First child was delivered via vaginal birth, with no symptoms during pregnancy. Now this pregnancy has severe pubic bone pain. Can I still have a vaginal birth?

Doctor's answer:

The pubic symphysis diastasis generally does not affect a normal delivery, and it usually heals naturally after a period of time postpartum. Suggestions: If the baby's position and placenta are normal, then a normal delivery can be considered.
