Middle of the night agony! Anyone else?!

I’m 21 weeks pregnant and I woke up in the night with what felt like muscle pain in my right lower back/side. As I tried to move to ease it, the pain went through the roof and I couldn’t lie still. It was so bad I felt like I could cry! I moved onto my knees then felt suddenly nauseous and hot.

I shuffled to the toilet, had a wee, and felt shaky but the pain eased and after a few minutes I felt well enough to go back to bed.

This happened once before a few weeks ago but I thought I’d hurt my back so I wrote it off. Now I don’t think it was.

Anyone else experienced this?

Possible sciatica?

Thanks for the suggestion, I hadn’t thought of that. Never had any problems with my back before. The joys of pregnancy!
