24 weeks and sudden excruciating low back and sciatic pain

Kate

DH and I sleep (and lounge) on out mattress on the floor (haven't had the budget for a bed frame yet). Anyway, battling a chest cold so I spent the evening trying to nap. As I was getting back into lounging position after dinner, I got sudden, excruciating, gasp-inducing pain shooting through my low back. I tried to adjust positions which just shot the pain into my glutes. It's calmer than it was an hour ago but it's still hugely painful. Took some Tylenol and put some heat packs against the worst spots. Any other ideas? Babygirl is kicking up a storm in the meantime...
