Sciatica pain and chiropractor

Sciatica pain is no joke. If you are dealing with it talk to your doctor. Chiropractor is amazing for helping relieve the pain and giving you exercise to help keep it away! I had it in both my pregnancies. First time in the second trimester. With my second at 8 weeks. I was miserable. I ended up off work at 24 weeks with my first and 20 weeks with my second. I could barely walk. My other belly band didn’t work well and had to tape my belly with KT tape. It hurt pulling it off. If we get pregnant again I’m getting the momcozy belly band.

I wish I had just splurged and bought this when I was pregnant! I couldn’t justify spending the money at the time, but I realized later on it would have been such a great back pain reliever!

Me too! It looks way more comfy!

Yes. I know what you mean. It’s definitely worth it if it makes pregnancy pain easier

I got a belly band through insurance and it was sooo uncomfortable, I didn’t wear it and just pushed through the pain and discomfort. I agree with finding a comfortable one!

It’s crazy how intense the back pain gets, especially towards the end of pregnancy. I could barely get around! Of course, it would have helped if I had stayed in shape. I was a pretty lazy preggo! :joy:

Yes why are they so uncomfortable. Like why. I felt so constricted and itchy. It didn’t even feel like much support. I ended up returning one because it was so bad

I know right! Like why. Laying down hurt. Walking hurt. Everything hurt. I found if I didn’t stay in one position for too long it got better. I lived on the yoga ball towards the end

I definitely remember changing positions often. Sleep was especially difficult

Yesss!! The itchiness :sob: I thought it was just my skin stretching from pregnancy but now that you mentioned it, it was more so when I was using my band!

It’s probably the fabric it was. The 2 I had weren’t comfortable fabric at all
