on their last nerve? LOL!

Mine usually acts up when I'm preggo but it doesn't normally start until the last trimester. The last few days have been killing me! I hate going to take a step and almost falling because my leg starts to give out

I see the doctor after my u/s on the 29th and I'm going to get her to refer me to a chiropractor or something to help ease the pain.

Anyone have any tips or suggestions for relief?

Yes, I've noticed mine starting up. But mine is mostly in my right butt/back area. I noticed yesterday that my tailbone was starting to hurt and my hip is killing me. So it's definately getting harder to walk around.
I don't really know how to get rid of sciatic pain, I just deal with it. You may want to try physio.

Ugh yes. It seems to get worse with each pregnancy. This one has started since about week 7.

I've found a way to pop my butt haha. It seems to help relieve the pressure and pain but to deal with it the best for me is going to a chiropractor. I haven't gone yet but will probably start soon.

I've been having pain on my left side of my butt and it feels like my hip is all out of wack and my tail bone is killing me
i try to lay down and get my husband to rub my lower back
standing up surprisingly helps, because my job requires me basically to sit tethered to a computer all day

(((Hugs))) I've been very fortunate (knock on wood) to never have had problems with sciatic pain. I hope it eases up for you.

I usually have problems later and then I had HORRIBLE problems with sciatica after Madelyn was born. I hope I am spared this time!!!

[erleigh]

Yes! It's been bothering me for a couple of weeks now. Ouch!

yep every pregnancy and its BAD this time

[Newb_Mommy]

From how everyone is describing it, that must be the pain near my tail bone/ butt that has been killing me on and off ever since the start of my second trimester. I didn't know thats what it was, but I have definitely been feeling it!

[crazichickey]

I am right there with you today. I usually use my heat pad and it helps with the pain.

[Army_Wife]

Me too...I had to do PT when I was pregnant with Carlie b/c the pain was so bad. I'm really hoping it doesn't get that bad this time, but it's already started to hurt. I can't imagine what it'll feel like by week 30.

[LuvRBx6]

I got it only a little bit last time. It was uncomfortable and it sucked but it was tolerable for me.... but with my pregnancy before last, OMG it hurt so bad sometimes I limped... even though it didn't help or anything!

I just hope that if I get that issue again, it is mild-moderate like last time.

[srprisebean3]

Ugh! Yes! This is the first time too. I never had any problems with my other 2 pregnancies.

I get stuck on the floor sometimes and can't get up because of it. DH thinks its funny

I actually think I have my first case of this today!!.. Although mine seems to be in my thigh of my right leg only... Omg it was killiing me earlier!!!.. I was actually starting to get worried... I have NEVER had problems llike this with previous pregnancies... I laid down and put my leg up and had a sleep and woke up and it felt better!...
