Sciatic pain

I'm 24 weeks with my second pregnancy and I have sciatic pain in my left leg. But tonight it's like making under my butt feel like a pulled muscle and my foot to keep falling asleep. The only time tonight that it's not bothering  me much is if I'm in the tub. I can't stay in there all night. Any suggestions?

Check for streching on the internet. Some basic and safe yoga posture can help too. Doing some cat-cow and pelvic tilt help me a lot. It's funny I also have it only on the left side and I'm 26 weeks. For sleeping, a big pillow between my legs help.

Ice. I'm having the same issue, except most of my pain is in the right butt cheek. Ice packs have really helped.
