Ok I'm 25 weeks, and I am in seriously excruciating pain!! I told the nurse that my back was hurting…

Lay on your side with a pillow under your belly and between your legs

If it's yur hips it's probably sciatica I had it for about a month went to a chiro every week and it got better now I'm starting to get it back.. When mine flares up I lay on my left side seems to help alittle maybe try a heating pad for like 10 mins I did it helped for the time being

You should lay on your side to relieve pain. However if it's your sciatica nothing will really help until it subsides on it own. I'm terribly sorry that's the worst.

You can use a heating of on your back but not your belly.

@pregoprincess, I've been doing that since 15 weeks but it's just gotten worse. My hips go numb even if I try to get up my body goes weak. I don't know what to do I'm so sad about the changes my body is going through.

@jborton I've tried the heating pad too on my back and they told me to apply ice as often times to. I think my work is getting to me I am a CNA and work long hours by the end of the day I am drained and all I wanna do is sleep but my hips will go numb if I lay on them even with pillow and if I lay on my back I can't get up without having to cry my way up and waking my husband up. Oh mama's I've never experienced this before and this is my 3rd pregnancy 😪😪😔😔

@princevince, @jborton both of you mamas have mentioned sciatica what is that?? I feel new to this word!

Omg I feel so bad for you :(

Shooting pain from your back can shoot down your leg too and it's extremely painful. I only experienced it once in my pregnancy. I had a bad back prior so I've always had that problem but sciatica is the worst!

@pregoprincess, girl I feel bad for myself I'm only 25 weeks and have never experienced this ever. I honestly don't know what to do? I could literally cry a river right now!

heating pad !!

@princevince, ok that's what it feels like and on both legs but it's the worst on my left side! I think I might call my dr in the morning and let them know AGAIN that I can't tolerate the pain. It's like someone is literally stabbing me in my lower back left side over and over and my leg will hurt then go completely numb.

@cheyenne95, I have it on my back right now but it's not helping 😩😩😓

have you tried ice packs? warm epsom salt baths and tylenol xtra strength? i hope you feel better i know it sucks !

@cheyenne95, I haven't tried the Epsom salt baths yet. Yes on the Tylenol and the ice packs. Does that help with pain? At this point I am willing to try anything!! I seriously feel like an old lady with 2 broken hips on rehab!!

yes it helps and i know how you feel. my butt muscles even wanted to hurt lol i take 2 tylenol and epsom salt bath and put a heating pad for 15 mins then switch off to ice pack for 15 mins :)

@cheyenne95, thank you for the advice! I will seriously try whatever I can I sleep on our recliner sometimes because it helps but I miss my husband at night too lol

Sciatica is where yur nerve is being pinch I would go to a chiropractor they will align yur hips but I does take a couple weeks to fix but it did make it better

I threw my back out a few weeks ago, and since then my back hurt SO BAD. Like so bad I couldn't even do anything. But over the weekend my friend treated me to a prenatal massage, and now I feel great! I'm not sure how much they are but I think it's worth it! I may get another one before the baby's born.
