I get numb spots on the middle of my back that i think are pinched nerves from my pregnancy its been eight months will they ever heal?

Very Likely: If they are a result of pinched nerve then they should heal. However, nerve grow back very slowly (about 1mm/day) and they may take time to recover. Things like diabetes or smoking will slow this healing dramatically and should be avoided.
