Im on my 2nd healthy pregnancy and I have horrible sciatica pain.  I had this with my first child also but not as early in the pregnancy or this bad.  Any tips or tricks?

Hi! This community operates differently than most forums. We're here to build a support group. If you'd like to join, please post in introduction in the Intro thread, read through the ***READ THIS FIRST*** thread, and get to know us. This sort of question usually belongs more in the Symptoms thread.

We tend to discourage one-off posts that are just a single person asking a question just about them, and are geared towards a common discussion point as a thread, so everyone can discuss the same topics in the same place.

Unfortunately, most physical discomforts and physical/orthopedic issues are worse with each subsequent pregnancy. Support belts and physical therapy, plus posture work are typically the only options and have only limited success.
