I just got my positive a few days back and my lower back is already aching on and off. Honestly didnt expect this so early, thought it comes later. Is this normal in the beginning or should i be worried?
Yes, my doctor explained that progesterone relaxes the ligaments in your pelvic area, which often leads to early backache. She advised against using high-heat heating pads on the tummy or back. Just resting in a comfortable position helps.
Yes, it does hurt for many women because the body is preparing. Just avoid lifting heavy buckets or bending suddenly. Sit on a good chair with proper support and you'll be fine.
Oh god, yes! My lower back was so sore in the first few weeks, I thought my periods were coming. Just don't stress too much about it, it's totally normal. Try a warm water bath for quick relief.
My hospital's care team mentioned that early back pain is very common due to hormonal changes loosening the ligaments. However, if it's severe, they advise getting it checked immediately. Feel free to call your doctor's desk to clarify.
My back started aching early too, but I only started light stretching and walking after my gynac officially allowed it. Don't push your body with heavy exercises now. Focus on correct sitting posture.
