Sciatica?

I'm 15 weeks along. I am having crazy pain in my hips, buttox, and legs. The pain is so bad I can not sit, or lay in a position longer than an hour. Anyone else having these problems? Any remedies. I am exhausted and sore!

Re: Sciatica?

  • Yes I had a sciatica problem before. Stretch your hips! Look up online how to get the best hip stretch and do it 3 times a day! Good luck, sorry you are in so much pain!

  • I had it with my first and I've had the hip pain since my first pregnancy.  I thought it was all sciatica, but it turns out I have something called Brusitis (s/p?)  It's basically inflamation of the muscles around a joint, in my case my hips.  It sucks!!  I've been to a dr. and she said stetching is good and worse case they could inject me with something to help ease the pain.  Sleep with a pillow between your legs (by your knees) that should help and stetch a lot!!  Prenatal yoga helped me with my first and it taught me some easy moves to do at home when the pain was just too much to bear.

  • I have been dealing with sciatica for a few years now. Sometimes it is so bad I can't walk. Yoga has helped me a lot. It's the only thing that seem to help even a little bit so far. Good luck.

    I have some issues. A PT friend showed me a stretch that's been helping: lay on back with butt up against a chair/couch and knees bent at 90 degrees resting on chair/couch. Keep chin down and press lowers back into floor and hold a few seconds, repeat. You're tilting your pelvis up. When I start feeling it, these really help. Good luck!

  • I have been having hip pain too! I need to start stretching more. I played volleyball all through college and have some problems in those areas anyways. Last night I had a dream that I was having horrible back and hip pain; it was definitely there when I woke up!
  • Thanks ladies.

  • Find a chiropractor who specializes in pregnancy care. I did it with my first and it was the best decision I made and I felt great throughout my 1st pregnancy. Plus most insurance covers adjustments and massage :
