My lower back has been aching since I found out, like period pain but dull. I am not lifting anything heavy, still it comes by evening. Is this a common early symptom?
Early mein thoda back pain hota hai na, body changes ho rahi hoti hai isliye. Mere saath bhi tha. Halka heat lagao aur zyada der mat khade raho, aaram milta hai. Ho na?
Hormones plus your body making space for the baby, thats the usual reason. I managed it with a small pillow behind my back and avoiding heels. Just dont ignore it if it becomes severe or one sided, then get it checked.
Mild lower back ache is common early on. But Ill say this gently, in my case back pain with cramping was a warning sign, so please dont brush off pain that comes with bleeding or strong cramps. Call your gynac if it feels more than normal.
For me gentle prenatal stretches my doctor approved really eased the lower back. The cause is mostly the ligaments softening and posture changing. Dont try random youtube exercises though, get them cleared first.
My doctor explained that a hormone called relaxin softens the joints around the pelvis, plus your posture shifts, so lower back aches. She said warm compress and not standing too long helps. But she also warned, if the pain is sharp or with bleeding, come in immediately.
I felt this so early and got worried something was wrong. My gynac said its the hormones loosening up the ligaments and the uterus growing. Knowing that made me feel so much better, it was just my body adjusting.
