Well since iwas pregnant with my son ive had back pain, I always thought or assumed he was just on a nerve cuz it is only on my left lower back but then after he was born it was still there just not as bad, I just cant sleep on my back because it will hurt so bad when I wake up and if I sit on the floor it hurts like a flat surface, now I am pregnant again 32 weeks along now and it seems to have gotten worse, but ive been doing more work , when is weep or vaccum then stand straight up it hurts, I feel ike I limp when I walk lmao probably funny to watch im sure but iw ent crazy cleaning sunday and hit my toe or something and it hurts so im trying to walk not make that worse but the pain from my back sometimes seems to like go down my leg but becaus eof my toe I have pain in my shin as well , but its weird its all on one side, it really sucks I cant even enjoy sitting on the couch cuz it kills my back when I stand up, I cant sleep on my back ever or my left side unless I kinda lay on my stomach alil bit, I dunno if its just the pregnancy and it will go away or if im doomed for life. Anyone know any like er things I can do at home for it? Its hard getting to drs here because I just moved here and im in germany so I would have to get refferred to offbase for my back and I raelly have no idea where anything is other them my obgyn.
Another thing does anyone get sharp pains like apulled muscle in there legs atnight? Like I dunno if I go to stretch in the middle of the night I get a really bad shooting pain in my leg as if I pulled amuscle , it only last like 10 min or so but omg it isnt fun.
This pregnancy has wreaked havoc on my body lmao.

This sounds like your sciatic nerve. If you talk to your doctor about it, he can give you some exercises to do that might provide some relief.

I had that when I was pregnant also. The exercises didn't help me. Months of physical therapy was wasted. The only thing that 'cured' me was giving birth.

Good luck.

Back pain - home remedies
Hi,

Here are some home remedies for back pain.

* If it's cold outside then you need to drink hot soups.
* Garlic is very effective in treating backaches. You can add garlic cloves to your salad.
* Do not sleep with your face down even though you back aches.
* Massaging the aching area can never hurt.
* Exercise on a daily basis, stretch and swim.
* Get a back massage from a professional; the following three oils are very good in relieving back pain: almond oil, mint oil and eucalyptus oil.


Good luck
