I'm in the early stages of my pregnancy and have started experiencing some lower back pain. Is this a normal symptom in the first trimester, or should I be concerned? Does early pregnancy usually cause lower back pain?
In early weeks, my saas advised me to sit with a small cushion behind my back and avoid lifting buckets. It helped a lot, so try not to strain yourself.
Mild back pain is common as your pelvic ligaments loosen up. But listen, if the pain is very severe or accompanied by cramps, go to your gynac immediately.
My hospital team advised me that mild back pain is normal, but if it becomes sharp or severe, I must call them immediately. Better to ask your doctor if it is hurting too much.
