   I wonder if you went to a pool and just floated in the deep end if that would relieve some of the pressure that is causing the pain. Just a suggestion. I know that baths are hard to get in and out of, but maybe try the pool

   @sdimock1 LMAO if I could get INTO a bathtub I’d do that, but alas…….I haven’t been able to take a bath in months. Only showers. I even have a shower seat but it hurts to sit in…

   @TheSuperMoochacha Yup I had my Husband bring the recliner from the basement so I can have somewhere to sit that was comfortable. It helps a bit however lately NOTHING helps. I sit here with heating pads on my legs or a vibrating massager on my butt just to loosen the leg. It helps for a second or two but then tenses up again. I haven’t slept in the rocker JUST yet (surprised my doctor today, too) but I think I may begin to in a week or so.

    @thebubblelush I’m scared to death of chiropractors! They freak me out lol. I have the pubic symphasis too on top of it all. So, the sciatic nerve is pinched AND that…it’s horrid. I’m not convinced it’s sciatica though because my back doesn’t hurt all the time – but maybe that’s the thing with the nerve? I don’t even know LOL I can’t even form sentences anymore.

    Get thee to a chiropractor. I didn’t have sciatic pain, mine was pubic symphasis pain and I felt like my pelvis was going to break in half. She was able to adjust me to where I could walk again. Chiropractors are like miracle workers with this type of pain.

    I’m sorry you’re hurting so much. You’re just doing such a great job growing two big healthy babies that your body can’t keep up.

    Is is your sciatica? I went to my chiropractor for mine. It did help alleviate a bit.. but the minute the baby came out.. the pain went away. Sounds like one of the babies must be pressing down on there and until they change their position.. all remedies are temporary! Oh I hope you get relief soon! xo

    i had horrible back pain when i was pregnant w/ my first because i have herniated disks. my SO put capsacian cream on my back. i’m not sure if i’m spelling it right. it is safe for pregnancy. a warning though, when you first put it on it gets really hot, so be prepared. it’s made out of hot peppers so imagine eating really spicy food only topically, if that makes any sense. it sucks at first but it does work. also i would consider a chiropractor. also, a body pillow at night and yoga.

    My SIL had this in her pregnancy and it is the sciatic nerve, they recommended lying down on her side with knees bent and apparently walking helped her alot because somehow that relaxes the muscles I don’t know if walking a bit is an option for you because of your twin pregnancy. Will let you know if I find anything else out. Sorry are having that kind of pain ;-(

    Definitely sounds like the sciatic nerve and if nothings working I’d go see a chiropractor. Hopefully they can relieve some of the pain. I’d even look into finding someone that does A.R.T. at a Chiropractic Centre. (Active Release Technique) They can tend specifically to nerves and muscles even more so then a regular chiropractor. I’ll keep you in my prayers, & hopefully soon you’ll feel MUCH better. I’m SOO SORRY you have to deal with this at all. :-/
