I'm not sure if it's the same thing but when I was about 36 weeks or so I found I could hardly put any weight down on my left leg. I thought i'd strained a ligament or something but it was really painful and went on until I gave birth. It turns out it was actually my back that was the problem but I felt the pain in my leg.

Where exactly are you feeling the pain?

Pure, the baby was on your sciatic nerve. I had this problem throughout my .E.N.T.I.R.E pregnancy!! It was sooooo hard to work!!! Or even move at that.

It never got better until I had her.

These could be signs of pre labor, call your doctor and see what they say!!

Yea, thank god they're worth it. I had a perfect pregnancy besides the ciatic pains, in the beginning. Then, it just went downhill.....I was miserable...I sometimes i'm thankful I had her 3 weeks early. I don't know if I could've made it to 40 weeks!!!

The pain is in my lower right stomach area. It feels like I pulled a rather large muscle
