Anyone have sciatic nerve pain?

Anyone experience sciatic pain during pregnancy? My second sat on my sciatic nerve the entire pregnancy and I had numbness, burning, and could barely stand for more than a couple minutes at a time. Now I’m back with baby number three and at 18 weeks it started full force again. My doctor gave me stretches, a belly band, I’ve done everything except chiropractic, and acupuncture but wanna see if anyone has had good results with either? I work at a daycare so lifting and standing is my job and I can’t really stop. The only relief ever for me is Tylenol and laying down. Let me know!

Physical therapy and pregnancy massages. Not regular massages, pregnancy massages. They are different to avoid causing early labor. :revolving_hearts:
Rest when you need to. You may have to start stretching when you stand to help align your hips and relieve some pressure. Everybody is different. A physical therapist will 100% help.
