I'm reeeaaallly hurting today

My sciatic nerve is so bad. It hurst to do anything but lay down. Even sitting with my legs crossed isn't easy!

I can only imagine how much worse this is going to get.

Re: I'm reeeaaallly hurting today

If you are already hurting then I would reccomend you start going to physical therapy. I was so bad at 22 weeks, I had to bulging disks and sciatica issues that both my legs went numb one night and I couldn't stand out to get out of bed... I had to pee in a garbage can cause I couldn't make it to the bathroom

I started physical therapy for it and its SOooo much better. I rarely get flare ups and when I do its only at night for a little while and no where near as bad as it was before!!

I feel your pain!! I've never in my life experienced this and it just starting killing me over the past few days!! I'm guessing the baby keeps rolling on and off the nerve because it comes and goes but it is just god awful when its there!

FEEL BETTER

I'm so sorry. I can't imagine. I know MrsRivera dealt with this, perhaps she can help with some remedies.

Oh you poor thing. I had it for about 3 weeks when DD was one week old and it was way worse than childbirth imo!! The OB told me to use certain yoga moves and they did help a little but boy was it painful - have you called your OB for any advice? Oh and Congrats I didnt know you were pregnant

Thanks girls.

I have had it since getting my BFP, and a few times prior to that, but it's getting progressively worse.

I see my OB on Tuesday for the first time, so I will speak to him about it and see what he thinks.
