In desparate need of help- sciata pain
I had sciata pain at 6-7 weeks. It was pretty bad then all of a sudden went away. Now I'm a few days shy of 11 weeks and it has come back with a vengeance! I can barely walk. It's terrible. I'm going to call my OB in the morning but in the meantime is there anything tht helps. If I change positions it spasms, if I am walking an turn a different way, it spasms, its bad. And it hurts.

I had the same and I started going to a chiropractor. It really helps. I also started going once a month for a prenatal massage.

Re: In desparate need of help- sciata pain
Start doing yoga! I have had Sciata for months now. I have a hip pain and a shooting pain that runs down my leg. I did yoga this week, and it helped so much. I was so suprised. I still have pain, but it has felt so much better this week. I'm thinking if I start doing it a few times a week, it is really going to help.

Re: In desparate need of help- sciata pain
I saw a chiropractor weekly during my pregnancy- it helped so much. If you need a recommendation for a good one let me know. My chiropractor is fantastic and I now take my baby to see her too. She specializes in maternity and pediatrics.

Re: In desparate need of help- sciata pain
crashing.... look on youtube for pregnancy safe sciatica stretches. It really helped me. One was to squat holding onto the seat of a chair for a few secs at a time. and there were a few others. It was from a registered nurse. Someone on here told me about it.

In desparate need of help- sciata pain
i saw a physical therapist once my last pregnancy, and it helped for the remainder of the pregnancy. this time, at 21 weeks, i was in so much pain i could not walk. i did the stretches they taught me, and the debilitating pain went away. now i just ice for soreness, cuz there's nothing you can do about that other that. but yoga also helps with that a lot as well. feel good!
