Ouchhh  that really hurts! Try a ziplock bag with ice it calms the pain for a little bit but u can only have it for 15 min on each spot so it wont burn u. Good luck!

Massage places usually have a pregancy massage I been dying to try one (:
A heating pad on the lowest heat setting helps too.
Maybe a warm bath

Have someone give a back, and neck massage for at least 10-15 minutes! That's what I had to do!
