19 weeks and am getting a sharp pain it.my left butt cheek that is making it so I can barely walk. It's been getting worse and worse. Calling my midwife as soon as they open. I also have aches and pains in my back and legs.
Yep. Sounds like sciatic nerve pain. I have this due to a tight piriformis muscle (muscle that run across your butt). I've been getting massage and thinking about doing PT. I'm worried that if it's this bad now, how much pain will I be in later
I had a pinched sciatic nerve with my first pregnancy because my hip rotated. I went to physical therapy and it helped a lot. Before physical therapy I could barely walk the pain was so bad. Also they reccomend for me to use ice.
Google stretches for sciatica during pregnancy. If these don't work you may want to see a physical therapist or chiropractor. My chiropractor has me come in weekly for adjustments so it's a pain but they help a ton.
