Is anyone else’s sciatica/lower back pain reaching new heights? Last week at prenatal yoga I had to just stop bc the right side of my butt just felt broken, like down to the nerves and bones not like a muscle cramp or spasm.

It’s been progressively worse since then, and I was powering through while nesting mostly. Then last night couldn’t stand up after using a public toilet. Legit almost had to call for help before kind of throwing myself forward with my arms for momentum. And today couldn’t make it up the stairs leading with my right leg at all.

It’s never been this bad, and previously dr just told me it’s probably going to get worse until I deliver and there’s no treatment short of things that are bad for baby like epidural, steroid etc.

I feel like I might end up on bed rest just by virtue of not being able to stand/walk, not for any concerns of premature labor. It basically feels like I’m being hit with a bat every few steps with my right leg 😫

I’m a little worried I’ll ignore something serious thinking it’s “just” my worsening back pain. Last week blood pressure was a little high but OB said related pain would be under right boob not right butt lol.
