Sciatica on the first trimester?

devaki100

Besides the lovely first tri symptoms of feeling completely hungover all day everyday I started having these cramps in the middle of my butt. Mostly the left side. Usually just have them at night, but have progressively gotten worse and moved to my tail bone and lower back. I asked my obg and he said it was sciatica and I should go see a chiropractor. WHAT??? Doesn't that happen when you're like 7-9 months pregnant? I was wondering if anyone in the community has had this issue and could share some tips. I found two yoga poses that help but definitely don't get rid of the pain completely (pigeon and child pose). I'm terrified that if the pain is so severe on my 10th week, by the 7th month I'll be in bed rest.
