Acid and bum cheek pain!

Hi all



I'm 25 weeks pg and have horrible acid indigestion... Especially when I eat fruit.. I don't want to cut it out completely but suffer after I've eaten it!



Any ideas on how to eat it without the acid after??



Also have awful left bum cheek pain... Mw says sciatica and nothing can be done but any tips how to minimise pain??



Other than those minor things I'm just great!!

  • Gaviscon for the acid. It's the only thing that helps me. You can get it free on prescription.



    There are a few exercises you can do to releive siatica which you can find on internet. Other things: make sure you try to sit up with legs tucked in; use cushions to prop you up; wear shoes that have a broad heel. If it gets rwally bad there are some antiinflamatory drugs doc can prescribe. Get doc to show you where to massage and get OH to stick his elbow into spot. : )



    My siatica isn't too bad it's just my back now. Can't get comfy in bed. I do stratches and Yoga which helps but the pain is constant : (
