And i thought yesterday was bad
I had the worst night of my life. I literally was temporarily paralyzed. I have never experience such a feeling in all my life. I woke around 1am not able to move. Screaming for my mom, ( DH is away), she came in and finally around 3am i couldnt take it so we paged the dr. He couldnt do a too much obv, but i needed to know if i had to go to ER or what. I finally fell asleep around 4:30 but by 5:15 i was in pain again. Not to mention i had to pee. My mom tried to get me up but we had no luck. I was hysterical. The pain was one thing, but the scariness of having no mobility was making me cry the most. Around 6:30 we called my dad. He came over and using both of them to hold onto and lean my body weight against, i was able to get up. The past 2+ hrs have been ok. I can walk, just really slowly.
I am taking it one day at a time. Dr is basically telling me i might wind up on bedrest. Im only 28wks. I still have a decent amt of time to go.
I will keep yas posted

we did some research online and there could be a bigger issue like a bulging disc which creates sciatica. God i hope not. Im seeing an OB chiropractor tomorrow so we will find out more

Re: And i thought yesterday was bad
This doesn't sound like your typical sciatic pain to me...I had a herniated disc a few years ago and it sounds more like that. It was pushing on a nerve so in the beginning they thought it was just sciatic pain, but it got worse instead of better and I was basically in hideous pain whenever I moved until I got it fixed.
You might want to FM MrsRivera- I remember she went through something similar last year while pregnant. Lots of for you- it is awful to be in that kind of pain.

I was going to say the same thing- a bulging disc. If you do have a bulging disc, it's still 10000% better than a slipped disc. You need time. I know you are in pain now, but time is going to help you. The baby will move off the nerve and if you go on some form of bedrest it will help you a lot.
I have had slipped discs, bulging discs, sciatica pain etc. I, too know what it's like not to be mobile and it's one of the scariest things I ever experienced. With my 1st pg, I couldn't walk for a week straight and then finally I was relieved.
I think going to the chiropractor will help you.
Keep us updated and I truly hope you start feeling better soon. You shouldn't have to be miserable like this.

Re: And i thought yesterday was bad
let us know what the chiro says. maybe accupuncture in this case would help. I found it used to help with my neck and shoulders.
I hope you dont go on bedrest. I know thats common treatment for back problems,but sometimes i think it would make things worse b/c your muscles start to atrophy..
take what the dr. gives you for now to get some relief.

I understand not wanting to take it....BUT being in that much pain is not good for you or baby. Pain causes our pulse, respirations, and blood pressure to rise, rise, rise and the fact that you can't move makes you anxious and scared. That also does the same thing. TAKE THE PILLS!!!!!!!!! I know it's scary, but they are safe and they can help! TAKE THE PILLS!!!!!! This is not a case of mild back pain and it is uncomfortable. this is way more then that and THAT is what the pills are MADE for! TAKE THE PILLS!!!!!
