I still have problems with that nerve, and it has been 11 years since I got it. I am pregnant with my 3rd and and these last few weeks have been a severe pain in the back due to a damaged nerve. It was MY fault that the nerve got damaged, but it isn’t worth the pain later. (2 procedures later to relieve the pinch…) But some times, it does work, it just didn’t for me. I wasn’t properly supported so I started leaning to the left and ended up jerking to correct myself and that is where the problems began.

I also could feel when it was time to push (presser not pain) and had no issues, i have no back pain or any other issues and my baby came out wide awake and very alert.

Mine didnt work, and it was NOT that bad. Plus the back pain i get almost everyday, is not worth it.
