2 THINGS

[ads1sttime]

#1 who else has had these HORRIBLE butt pains? I have read that it's called sciatica (meaning the baby is sitting on the sciatic nerve). It's the most uncomfortable think EVER...

#2 when do you start to feel movement?? I'm 17 weeks and have felt nothing. And the baby is still down in my pelvic region, when shouldvhe be moving up?

Oh and I started feeling flutters once at 18 weeks then nothing then I started feeling full on baby kicking at 20 weeks.

I'm 32+4 and have major butt pain! And yep that would be sciatica... it also causes my lower back to hurt and my legs but mainly I deal with the pain in my butt!
Its the worst >_<

Massage and stretching help sciatica. U can also sit on a tennis ball where the pain is and then either use ice or heat....whichever makes it feel better. If the pain goes down the back of ur leg than it is sciatica.

Omg I had sciatica a couple months ago and it was the worst, I have a 19 month old and work as a cna (I do a lot of lifting) I honestly thought I was gona die lol everytime I hada use the bathroom I hada have my bf help me up lol it was terrible it lasted for 2 weeks, stretching helps cause sometimes it will make your baby move.

I'm 22 weeks and I have been dealing with the button pains for the past three days and it hurts to walk, sit, bend over. I have been doing a heating pad. My doctor is going to have me try physical therapy to see if that eases some of the sciatica pain. What are u doing for the pain?
