Anyone getting chiropractic care?

Rsgrl

My back has been killing me for about three weeks now, so I finally broke down and made an appointment to see the chiropractor.  I used to see one a couple of years ago, so I'm familiar with the process.

But, I'm wondering if anyone else has been treated while pregnant and what your experiences were.  Is there anything different I need to mention at the appointment (other than the obvious) or different things I should expect?

TIA

I went once at 15 weeks, and felt so much better afterward! I was still able to lay on my tummy comfortably at that appt. so I'm not sure how different it would be on your back though.

I go about every other week. I love it! The only difference is that I do not have the heat/stimuli treatment.

I need to go for my neck really bad.  I haven't been since I was at 8w.

I asked my new high-risk doc about it.   She said it's fine except she doesn't want me laying flat on my back.   I need to call my chiro and see if they can do it on an incline or something.

My Chiro can do all the adjusting whether I'm laying down or standing up and he has a special chair thing for pregnant women once you have a really large belly...  I'm sure they can accomodate!

I just went yesterday for the first time since I was about 9 weeks, nothing really different. And I feel so much better now. I even feel like I'm breathing better lol

I go once a week and love it. I feel so much better! My Dr. said it would make the labor go smoother and help a lot with joint and back pain.
