Anyone had awful back pain? I work at a desk all day and also have a long commute including walking half an hour to the station and back again with a rucksack.
I've tried some stretches last night which helped a tad but I really don't know what else I can do to help the pain other than continuing to see if the pregnancy safe stretches work. I don't know whether to book to see my GP or not or. Will they just send me away saying they can't do much and to keep stretching?

I also have this at the moment. It's so awful I can barely walk when it's irritated. I called my midwife today and she says it sounds like sciatica but couldn't really suggest much other than staying active (taking short breaks from sitting throughout the day) and stretches
