Yep, I was another sufferer, pretty much all through my pregnancy. I tried pretty much everything - physio, acupuncture, support belts, exercise (which made it worse).
Believe it or not, the only thing I found that gave me a bit of a relief was putting on a pair of high heels (not joking). Nothing too high, just something with about a 5cm wedge, cos it would tilt my hips enough to relieve the pressure on the nerve. I was probably the only full term preg lady on the planet getting around in a pair of heels, but it did make the world of difference, even if I looked crazy. And, when I told my physio she didn't believe me until she saw how I stood in the heels and then could understand how it would work.
Don't know if it was just a fluke, or had something to do with the fact that I've spent most of my adult life trapesing around in ridiculous shoes and my body is just more comfortable that way.
