Congrats on your pregnancy and my best wishes for a very healthy 23 more weeks!<br /><br />I had severe sciatic nerve pain during my pregnancy. My Husband used to say "arrrr!" anytime I walked around because I looked like a pirate with a peg leg! Not to do the whole "I've been pregnant so I know much more than you, let me tell you everything" thing, but here are a few things that seemed to really help:<br /><br />1. Water. The pool made everything better! If you have access to a swimming pool, make use of it!<br />2. Walking. Obv not when the pain is super intense, but as a preventative thing. Just start walking a bit everyday, if you are already, increase it a bit. Nothing strenuous, but it will stretch you out and make your delivery and recovery easier.<br />3. Spicy food - sounds weird, but whenever it got too much for me to handle I would eat something insanely spicy, the baby would move and it seemed to make things better. <br /><br />Good luck!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180467808749035525.post-67361365616274425002012-03-09T09:32:18.089-05:002012-03-09T09:32:18.089-05:00While I technically agree that cervical checks are...While I technically agree that cervical checks are kind of a no-no and my midwives do NO cervical checks during pregnancy unless there is a specific reason or concern, nothing routine, I feel doing my own is a little different. I've told my midwives every time I've done it and they've never batted an eye or warned me against it and even though it sounds like I do it all the time I've only done it 4 times my whole pregnancy, they just all happened to be last week! Also, when I REALLY think about it if my cervix can handle sex I don't see why it can't handle my washed finger for a moment =)Jesicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15320801593860983896noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180467808749035525.post-33542653416809231372012-03-09T00:07:06.879-05:002012-03-09T00:07:06.879-05:00I wish I could feel good enough to fly while pregn...I wish I could feel good enough to fly while pregnant. I would be scared to be away from my DR. <br />I did want to mention to you...not to freak you out or anything, but I have heard that cervical checks can possibly not be that good for you to do. Some OB's don't even do it. There is a chance of irratation (that could case issues) and infection. I'm sure your OB would tell you if you shouldn't be doing it, but I just thought I would let you know something I heard. <br />I am happy to see your belly a-growin' and that you are enjoying your time with the baby.ADSchillhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13972164121690415796noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180467808749035525.post-21580691488800902352012-03-08T21:46:44.381-05:002012-03-08T21:46:44.381-05:00You look fantastic!
