Lower back pain? Why?

Question

Is it my sciatic nerve? I'm almost 23 weeks. Laying on my back and getting up from laying down, both send a horrible pain across my lower back 😣 im sure it will only get worse as my baby boy grows, I know sleeping on your back during pregnancy is not recommended, and I usually don't, but even getting up from relaxing on my bed..

Answer

Pelvic rocks can help too.

Answer

Siatica also sends pain down the back of your legs, so it may not be that. It could be the way you're standing, especially if you have your butt sticking out and arching your lower back. Try seeing a chiropractor. It's completely safe while pregnant, my midwife even recommended it. With my first I got weekly visits, and I got rid of my pain and kept it from coming back the rest of the pregnancy.

Answer

Happens to me too. Your bones and muscles are like what is going on cuz of the extra weight from baby. When I'm on my back and moving or getting up, I move very slowly.

Answer

I had pain similar in the beginning.  Dr told me i can use heat pads.  So i did and it helps. Also some light yoga stretches helped me
