SEVERE back pain

The last few days I've had really bad back pain...it's hard to explain exactly what it feels like. It started after I was going to the bathroom, and I felt like a knocking (for lack of a better way to explain it) on my spine from the inside...and then instantly my left side started burning like it was having acid dumped on it, and I got super nauseous. I curled up in a ball on my bed and couldn't do anything else. I talked to my mom about it once it subsided enough to think, since she was a nurse and it was a weekend...and she told me it should be fine, baby was probably just kicking a nerve or something, I should take a warm bath and try to relax.
The next day my back hurt so bad I was limping all day and my stomach felt like it was cramping super bad. I was terrified, and so I called my mom again. She looked up the number for Capital Medical Center for me, and had me call them. They said that maybe baby was laying on a ligament and that I should try moving her up higher and relaxing. It worked for a little bit, but it never went completely away.
And now, my back is KILLING me...all I want to do is curl up and die. I have no idea what's causing it, and I have no way to get to my doctor's.


Anyone have any ideas on what could be going on, or how to help the pain? Any advice would be appreciated. This is my first pregnancy and I was told I probably wouldn't be able to have children, so I'm even more worried than I probably should be...  

This may or may not help, but I always get on all fours like doggy style and I roll my back up and down then I move my hips. That always seems to help me. And of course a hot bath relaxes you.

Yeah...I was told to do that...it helped while I was like that, but as soon as I sat up to do anything it started hurting again :/

Have you tried taking Tylenol? That also helps. It could be that she is sitting in the wrong place and shes not getting the hint to move lol.

I've tried it...and it helps, but I dont want to take too much of it.
But yeah...knowing her parents, she's just being stubborn and refusing to move

haha, well I hope she moves around and you start feeling better

Thanks...I hope so too

Sounds like the sciatic nerve to me. Sadly there isn't a whole lot you can do for it. I take warm baths, it helps some but not enough. Your baby isn't very big at this point...and as he/she grows there is a good chance the sciatic pain will get worse. My advice to you is that you take it SUPER easy...I'm talking like, stay in bed whenever you can.

Good luck and feel better!

P.s Heating pads help quite a bit, so if you have one, or can borrow one - I highly recommend it!

I was hoping that's something it wasnt :/ I live with my sister who has a 27 month old and a 1 year old...who both like playing with their auntie   lol
Hopefully I'll find out on Thursday if it's something I need to be worried about.
I might try another hot bath and ask my sister for the heating pad when she wakes up...thanks for the advice!
