sciatica pain

Anyone have any suggestions on dealing with sciatica? This has made me so depressed. I barely could walk,sit or lay without pain, basically, stay in pain 24/7.  Ive tried everything to staying active n hydrated, warm baths, stretching, resting,hot and cold compressions, elevating my feet and medication. Hopefully, physical therapy and acupuncture will help n I can get back to my routine and enjoy my pregnancy. In the meantime, do anyone have any other suggestions?

Firstly mention it to your doctors you may need some physiotherapy. Mine started whilst pregnant with my eldest 7 years ago and I've had it on and off since worse when I've done a lot of walking. They'll give you stretches to help it's not an over night thing but hopefully it'll improve x
