shooting pain through right side of buttocks
Posted: 06-15-08 05:57am

I am 8 1/2 weeks pregnant and am in severe pain...................
I have this absolutely horrendous sharp, shooting pain striking up through the right side of my buttocks and lower back..
I know that people say that there are alot of things that you have to just put up with when your pregnant but this is so painful.
Ive tryed stretching it out but it doesnt work.. Its crippling and sometimes i can barely walk or sit.
What should I do??????

I'm about 9 weeks now, and just last week started getting that very same pain on the same side. A friend at work said that it's my pelvis moving and preparing to hold the baby. I thought I was about to throw my back out!

I have found that stretching does not make it feel better...but it has eased off this week.

Hope it eases off for you too Smile

It sounds like sciatica to me.
I hope you can figure it out!
