Can't walk

Today, I can't walk because of pain in my lower back, hip, butt and leg. I guess it is just the way the baby is sitting.  I didn't have this with DD. I hope this doesn't last for the next month.  I did lay down for a little today and it helped a bit but now it is back to where I can not walk.  Can't get much done and DD is really annoyed with me :)  Mostly just venting but wondering what has helped any of you if you have experience this.

Thanks for your time!

Re: Can't walk

  • Wedge a pillow behind the middle of your back whenever you sit and take Tylenol.  I have had such horrible back/hip issues because of the twins.

  • I had that a few weeks ago! I couldn't walk AT ALL...my DH had to help me to the bathroom because my knees kept buckling and i was scared i was going to fall!! I wish i could tell you something made it go away but i just laid down for a few days and eventually it got better...it lasted about three days for me.

  • Laying on a heating pad and elevating my knees with a pillow always helps me with sciatic pain.

  • A chiropractor.  I've been going for just over a month now.  It's not the most pleasant time but my back does feel better.

  • This is prob not great "medical" advice LOL, but if I really need LO to move, I drink some soda.  The caffeine gets him moving enough that he gets off whatever pressure pt he was on and I can be semi comfortable again.
