sciatica

Kitty23 · Nov 21st, 2008, 08:09 AM

I have only just been able to sit up and stop crying for the first time in 3 days! lol I was walking down the stairs and my legs wouldnt move I was paralysed from the waist down, took me 30 mins to hobble to the sofa.

Most pain I have ever ever had! I thought I was dying!!! Needless to say kept my mind of the 2ww haha!

Well I'm 13dpo now. I talked to my mum about it( shes a nurse) cause I've never had sciatia before no problems with my back ever.

My mum seems to think it might be a preg sign, usually you get sciatica from late pregnancy and the uterus pushing on your nerve, but also some people get in early pregnancy from the ligaments in your pelvis pushing on the nerve due to hormones.

So I'm very very very hopeful that its a preg symptom!
other sympotms:
puffy nipples( never had this before)
horrible pinching cramps
sleeping alot!
sore bigger boobs
acne lol ( nice)
restless sleep ( v unusual) about 7dpo
weird taste in my mouth

Anyone else get Sciatica in early pregnancy??? xxxxx
