Answer

I'm 31 weeks and I have lived on my heating pad this pregnancy. I don't use it on the highest setting and I don't sleep on it or anything.

Answer

Rice sock or a bean bag heated in the microwave! Heating pads provide continuous heat that can be damaging to baby (raises your temp too much). But the sick/bag loses its heat over time so the risk is minimized. Still feels good but is safer for baby!

Answer

I had really bad sciatic nerve pain and pelvic pain my dr recommended a heating pad but only for a few mins a few times a day or a rice sock

Answer

I'm 11+4 and my back hurts way too much. I was told to not use heat pads. Was told to use ice pack but not all the time. Also, I sleep on my sides with pillows on both sides and that makes me so much comfortable. My Doc said not to sleep on back if I have back pain during pregnancy. Hope this helps ❤️
