My lower back has started aching a lot by evening, especially after cooking and standing. I am 6 months now and sleep is also disturbed. What helped you manage it without doing anything risky?
Sitting at a desk all day killed my back. I got a small cushion for lower back support and took short walks every hour. Practical and it actually worked without taking time out.
Prenatal yoga and some pelvic tilts really eased my back, but only after my doctor cleared me to do them. Gentle walking too. Dont push into anything painful, keep it light.
Back pain was tough for me in the last trimester. Side sleeping with a pillow between the knees and a warm bag on the lower back gave relief. Be gentle and dont lift heavy things.
Actually yaar a pregnancy support belt helped me so much in later months, took the weight off my back. And dont sit slouched. Thoda walk bhi karo daily, helps.
Watch your posture, dont stand too long, and use a pillow behind your back when sitting. A warm compress and gentle stretching helped me a ton. Avoid heels obviously.
Beta a gentle warm oil massage on the back used to help us, just mild, nothing harsh on the belly. Warm sekai also gives comfort. But if pain is very severe or sudden, show your doctor.
