Hi Iv had the same problem but i have numbness/tingling in my left leg all the time! I had physio as i was having problems with my back too and i was told that the baby is laying on the main nerve which runs down your back, nothing to worry about- hopefully once you've had baby the feeling will come back again fully! This is a very very common problem, hope this info helps settle you!
