Im just about 7 weeks and lately my upper back has been aching a lot, never had this before. I always thought back pain comes later in pregnancy not now. Is this a normal early thing?
Yes, early hormonal changes and posture shifts can cause back aches, even upper back for some. Both my pregnancies started with random body aches. Gentle stretching and a warm compress helped me, but if its severe or with other symptoms tell your gynac.
I have been getting upper back pain and wondered if its the pregnancy. Did others feel this early on too? My doctor said its common but it always helps to hear from others na.
My doctor said hormones like relaxin loosen the joints and ligaments even early, which can lead to back discomfort. She suggested good posture and support pillows. But she also said sudden severe back pain or pain with fever or burning urine should be reported.
