Random muscle weakness, should I seek doctor?

Question

I'm 19 weeks 2 days with my second. The back of my thighs get weak randomly and it is hard and painful to walk. Like my legs can't support my weight. It can last up to 15 min at a time. No idea why, not straining myself with exercise or anything nothing has changed in my lifestyle. Has me really confused and don't know what it could possibly be.

Answer

Sounds like sciatica

Answer

With my second I had about a week where I was on self bed rest because I couldn’t walk and needed support just to go to the bathroom. It felt like I was paralyzed and I was so scared. I don’t know why or how I regained my muscle strength back.

Answer

I had a similar experience.  Found out I have 2 herniated discs and a nerve was compressed at that time.  Yes you should go to see a doctor.  If it’s something manageable, I strongly urge physical therapy.  I was advised by 3 neurosurgeons that surgery, right then, was the only option.  My son had just turned one.  So for me, surgery, was my last option.  Physical therapy helped me a lot.
