please help!! in severe pain:/

Well im 28 weeks 3 days pregnant and since yesterday or maybe the day before I have been in severe pain in my back. But only on the lowet left side and is in my hip to. Sometimes it goes all the way down my leg and it hurts bad!! I thought it might be sciatic nerve pains but its been constant for a couple days now and.nothing helps! Backrubs, laying down, hot shower, not moving, resting alll day or nothing. It is so bad I waddle and limp when I walk, I camt get up by myself if I sit down and I cant even think about.turning in the bed without being in unbearable pain. And its only getting worse! What could this be? Should I go to the er? Call my doctor or l&d? I dont think I can handle this much longer and I will not by no means take a pain pill of any sort unless its life or death situation. Hate the way they makr me feel. I need some advice pleeeaase!!!!!?

Lord yes, and when I stretch I feel like my back and leg is fixing to crack apart. Lol but I called my chiropractor and thankfully he does pregnant women and can cut me a deal money wise since I dont have insurance anymore amd Medicaid wont cover it. So im gonna try that and pray it works. Cuz I cant stand this pain anymore.

The back pain you really can't stop. I found that out the hard way. My left side was hurting SO bad and my left buttcheek it seriously felt like a Charlie horse in my butt/side but worse. I went to the chiropractor finally and i haven't had it since! good luck!

Yeah ive tried a heating pad and that barely helps to. I cant even hardly move today. Im guessing maybe my bones are out of line or something from my hips spreading and extra weight from baby. All they told me in l&d is that it was ligament pains. In my back? Lol they are crazy. I may be a ftm but I have read a bunch of books amd forums on here so im not that dumb founded about my pregnancy. Lol

Er doctors suck!!! I'm glad you got your contractions to stop and that baby is healthy.... Have you tried using a heating pad? Or maybe soaking in a hot tub? I hope one of those help :/...

Well I went in to the hospital and was having contractions every ten minutes but the nurse said they werent having any effect on my cervix so they weren't really concerning but my doctor ordered a shot to get them to stop anyways because he said it is still to early for them to be regular like that. So anyways they got my contractions to stop and baby was fine with a very strong heartbeat so they sent me home and my back is STILL hurting me just as bad and they couldnt do nothing for it. :/
