Sciatic Nerve Pinch??!!

in 3rd Trimester
This all started about a week ago (i am now 38 wks pregnant). Randomly I will get sharp shooting pain from my lower back, down through my legs and my lady parts. Walking it off only makes it worse, and sitting down or resting doesn't help either. I've also tried taking baths and Tylenol and nothing seems to help. I'm guessing she is laying just right to where she is pinching a nerve. Does anyone have experience with this? Any advice on how to help it until I pop? Thanks

    If mine settles on my sciatic nerve, I'll put a package of frozen peas or something like that on my back, and it makes her move. It doesn't always help, but it's worth a shot.

    Oh my little guy likes to do that all the time and it is so painful. Generally warm baths have worked for me and sometimes just keeping my feet up. Doesn't always work but sometimes it does. You could always ask your Dr for some helpful tips.

    I found a place that does chiropractic care, acupuncture, massage, pressure-release therapy and basically anthing back/neck related. I'm seeing someone who specializes in pre-natal back care. It has been amazing. Also, a donut pillow for the bum when you sit. These things help me!

    Went it my chiropractor. He advised that at this point, it's hard to really get a good stretch thru the back. He got mine to stop hurting in a 10 min appt. well worth the visit!
