I'm 37 weeks and I have been taking a hot shower with my back turned to the water so it can put some pressure on my lower back, plus the heat feels good!
Omg i really need a back rub. My bf says he doesn't know how! And then when he tries its horrible. I know hes doing it on purpose. Maybe ill have to treat myself to a massage or get one if those at home massagers.
Ice and heat don't always do it. What I do is take one or two tylenol and apply tiger balm. You can get it at Wallgreens. It'll work like a charm!
I've tried heat...I've tried cold...heat seems to work better....BUT my doctor gave me a referal to omt clinics for muscle manipulation and it COMPLETELY relieves the pain.
I either lay on my back or my BF rubs my back n that helps a lil bit
And Vicks vapor rub is awesome.
You are supposed to alternate.
