Hi - posting for traffic as a little desperate.
I'm 18 weeks pregnant, and bending down to pick up toddler's toys this morning felt a huge 'twang' rippling across my lower back (the section starting at my hip bones down) and it's been in spasm ever since.
I'm not worried about the baby (should I be?). I've had this before in the same place. It stems from an injury which happened years ago.
I can't walk at all as the muscles I need to swing my hips won't move. I can just about make it to the loo if I'm bent over clinging to bits of furniture.
Does anyone have any advice? I can't take ibuprofen. Have had a bath and I have a hot water bottle. Am lying in bed. If I'm on my back my pelvis wants to 'tuck up' the the way with my bum cheeks slightly off the bed.
Anything else I can do?
