13 weeks. Severve pain in feet and back

Hi ladies. I cant get in to the doc so was just wondering if anyone has had something similar..  
The last 3 weeks or so i have had severe pain in the arches of my feet. It gets worse the longer I'm standing. The last 3 days i have had bad back pain too...
Any thoughts?

Gosh, not sure.  Not really heard of foot pain as part of pregnancy.  However, back pain and something called sciatica is common.  Sciatica is when a nerve is pinched and you feel pain radiating down your buttocks into your hamstring.  I wonder if gentle stretching would help you.  Take a tennis ball and roll your foot over it, stretch your calf and hamstring.  See if that helps.  And when you can get to your doc, talk to them. good luck
