Any twin pregnancy moms who have to deal with sciatica?!

I had to go to my OB today for an unscheduled visit due to horrible back pain and they said that baby a was resting on my sciatic nerve and they're pretty big. So I was wondering how everyone else is coping with the pain because let me tell you it's been hard for me!

    Yes I had it early on which was unexpected... I could only walk short distances and it was pretty miserable. Floating in a pool and chiropractor/massage was the only thing that have me relief. Baby a finally moved and now it is much better

    I had it- lasted a few weeks and then the kiddo moved.  My OB said nothing will really make it stop until the baby moves, so I took it as the sign that I needed to slow down and rest more.

    I had it around 26 weeks and miraculously it went away a few weeks later, then came back later but by then I was so miserable I didn't care. I was so happy that it didn't last from 26 weeks on. Just slow down and rest a lot, keep off your feet. I took a lot of super long warm baths (unfortunately not TOO long since I had to get out to pee!)
