    Ok, I am whining now. My sciatica is killing me. I cannot move without pain. If I try to lift my right leg, pain shoots through my butt. Is it still safe to go to the chiropractor? Can they even do anything for it?

    As far as I know, you can continue to go to the chiropractor right up until the end. My chiro has a table made specifically for pregnant women that adjusts to accomodate the big belly. Just make sure he has plenty of experience with treatment during pregnancy.

    I'm so sorry you're in pain. :hug99: Hope you can find someone to help!

    I don't have any advice since I've never had that, but I do hope you are able to at least find a temporary solution. Hugs to you!

    I have been doing hot baths as well as sitting on the heating pad but it doesn't really help much. I will be trying to get a chiro appt soon.

    That definitely doesn't sound like a fun way to spend your pregnancy!! I hope your Chiro is able to help relieve some of your pain!!
