Not that anyone cares but im going to force this on yous anyways

My midwife said the reason my sciatica is so bad and im so debilitated is because the baby is positioned against my spine 😫 she said shes refer me to a specialist for physical therapy or something but by the time id get my first appointment with them the baby will probably be here already. I should have mentioned this sooner and not at 36 weeks but i was trying not to be a complainer.

When I had sciatica I noticed some days were worse than others. Figured it out. The days I had no bananas to eat my pain was worse. When I got bananas the pain lessened. I was hurting so bad most days I didn’t want to leave the house. I did an online search about bananas and there is indications that they have a natural painkiller effect. Maybe not like opiates but it was a noticeable difference and I can’t take any OTC or prescriptions.
