Can't apply pressure to my right leg

[Charlotteck00]

Can anyone please help.

Last two days I have not been able to walk or to apply pressure to my right leg. I get a shooting pain from my middle of my bum inside and it's goes right down my leg. It's like something is trapped. It hurts so much I'm holding on to my wife because it's just giving way it hurts that much I'm so scared of falling. IV done my Google-ing and it's says sciatica but it's not a pregnancy symptom I hate Google-ing stuff because every website different. I'm 16 weeks today.

Has anyone else has this I'm literally using a walking stick and struggling to walk to the fridge for a drink nevermind anything else. :'(

Sounds like sciatica alright, that can be pregnancy related though so I don't see why you're ruling it out?

Yep. Sciatica for sure.

Good news is that mine actually got better as the pregnancy went on. So there is hope...

I'm 15 weeks and have had this this past few weeks. Had it with my first as well!! It should pass but is awful when it hits

Sciatica. See a Physio. I had it with both previous two babies and when it started at 24 weeks this time I was despondent thinking I would have it for the next 16 weeks but it actually went away through doing certain exercises and AVOIDING others. Definitely seek help because it is extremely debilitating.
