The heartburn. restless legs, leg cramps, sciatic pain...does it go away after delivery or does if hang around for a while?

I had the worst heartburn with DS1...like all day, every day. It was horrible. It was seriously gone by the day after I had him, and I never got it again until I was pregnant this time. I was surprised how quickly it went away. I don't know about the other three as I didn't have them with DS1. I do have sciatic pain this time around, and I am hoping it goes away right away too!

I've heard it goes away really quickly. I am keeping my fingers crossed for this!

I sure hope so....this sucks! LoL

My mom had really bad sciatic pain when she was pg with me and she said as soon as her water broke it was gone.

Yes. I did for me at least. All that stuff gets replaced with different discomforts.. but at least its different. -And even those don't last too long. We've got enough to worry about once baby gets here!

Thanks for asking this! I've been wondering the same thing

Yes. It flees the scene as soon as baby is out. Yes

My heartburn stopped literally hours after I delivered DD.

Thanks for the reassurance mommies!

My heartburn actually got better when DS dropped. It was gone by the morning after I delivered him.

The sciatica might take a week or two to go away. You'll likely be really swollen even after delivery and that's what causes sciatica. Get up and move as much as you possibly can to help flush all that congestion out of your muscles and lymph nodes.

I am SO glad to hear from the 2nd time moms that all that stuff goes away pronto. You have just given me hope!!!

Yup it goes away very quickly! I felt like a new person after I gave birth, it was such a relief!

yup it all goes away!. At least it did with my 1st (about a week after delivery).

Definitely. Almost all of the symptoms are caused by everything squishing together inside you - Heartburn goes away the fastest! I literally felt a decrease in heartburn as I was pushing - he was getting lower, and so was my stomach!

THe next morning, I even had LEMONADE. I was in heaven!
