Sciatica so early?

[thunderonlyhappenswhenits]

So I usually suffer from sciatica and actually had a bad flare up over Christmas. It's been fine since though. I'm 6+3 and my leg is killing me, the pain isn't in my back just all down my left leg, the front of my thigh, knee, calf and also going down into my ankle. Does this sound like sciatica ? I don't know if it's pregnancy related or not..
Can you get sciatica without the back pain ?
Thanks

I had sciatica at 12 weeks for a few weeks. It then went but has come back back at 30 weeks for the last couple. It does happen early sometimes

I had meralgia paresthetica from about 5/6 weeks in both pregnancies. Suffered mostly from burning pain/ pins and needles in the front of my thigh that got gradually worse as my pregnancy progressed. No back pain at all. I went from being able to walk/stand for 30 minutes without pain to pain after just a couple of minutes by the end.l of my pregnancy.

Yes my thigh actually went numb in the end, not full on dead but definitely numb! And the pain ended up in my ankle ! Gone by morning !
