Thyroid issues can sometimes cause extra body aches too. Make sure you are keeping up with your regular doctor checkups and blood tests.

Yes, it's quite common. My mother used to put a small pillow behind my back whenever I sat down, and that simple support made a big difference.

Gentle stretches can help, but only if your doctor has allowed it. Don't start any prenatal yoga or exercise without their green light.

Mild backache is very common due to hormonal changes, but please be cautious. If the pain is severe or accompanied by any spotting or cramps, check with your doctor immediately.

I had mild back pain in my first trimester too. Your body is releasing hormones to loosen ligaments, so just rest as much as you can.

My tracker app showed backache is standard in early weeks due to progesterone. I tracked my pain levels and used a warm compress which helped a lot.
