Pain at night!!

[EllieBelle]

For weeks now I have been getting the most awful pain in my lower buttocks/back of thighs during the night, but over the last few nights it has got so excrutiating that it keeps me awake and I have to get up and walk around the bedroom.....I also find myself having to turn over every 15 mins to alleviate the pain!

Im absolutely fine though during the day, walking etc........so its a night time thing, but grief does it hurt!!!

I know lots of people suffer from pelvic pain, but this is lower down !

Anyone else suffering with anything similar?????

Would I get sciatica on both sides?? Maybe I need to speak to my old chiropractor then as its effecting my sleep so badly now (as if my insomnia wasnt bad enough already)!!

 

[emmie]

yup it effects both sides, hope they can help

I had sciatica pain at about 32 weeks and it affected both of my sides. I have started aquanatal and exercise on my birthing ball and it seems to be much better now.
