lower back, hip and sciatica pain started at the beginning of my second trimester of my second pregnancy. I held out hope that the pain would subside after the baby was born. Unfortunately that wasn't the case. 4 months later the pain is worse than ever in varying degrees of spasm 24-7. Obviously very challenging with two little boys under 2 to care for.
After trying everything to relieve the pain a friend recommended Dr Sarnos book. I now believe I have TMS. I think I've pinpointed my issue to be the challenges of motherhood including opinion and information overload when it comes to raising kids in the day and age. It's quite amazing. My pain shoots when my baby cries, when I'm nursing him, just before morning when the fun begins or when I'm having trouble juggling the two.
I've been journaling, talking with family and having a few good cries and when I do my pain goes away BUT it's only temporary.
How and when can I make it stick for good? I feel like I spend allllllllll day thinking psychologially and that in itself is exhausting.
I saw an old post where @Steve Ozanich reassured a mom in a similar situation that it will be fine when things slow down. Lol while that's reassuring I feel like I'm years away from the "slow down".
Anyone in a similar situation or any advice is welcome!
Thanks!
