Im in my 5th month and my lower back is paining so much, especially by evening. Just want to understand why this happens na, is it the weight or something else? Anyone else going thru same?
I am in my second trimester and dealing with the same thing right now! My back hurts so much if I sit for even an hour. Have you found any safe stretches that work, or should I just ask my doctor about it?
I totally understand how difficult it is to deal with this pain when you are already carrying so much. Your sweet baby is growing inside, and your body is doing such beautiful, hard work to make room. Sending you a big hug, please take plenty of rest.
My mother used to massage my back gently with warm mustard oil, which gave me so much relief. It's mainly because your center of gravity changes as baby grows. Try sitting with a nice cushion support behind you at home.
My MIL and mother both insisted I shouldn't stand for too long and always keep a pillow behind my back. It actually helped! Your body is carrying extra weight now, so these backaches are bound to happen.
Oh, I feel you! Between throwing up all day and dealing with that nagging backache, pregnancy can be so exhausting. It happens because your pelvic ligaments are stretching. Try sleeping on your side with a pillow between your knees, it really eases the pressure.
Back pain is common, but it's always safest to check with your gynac. Sometimes it can be due to a urinary infection or something else that needs attention. Don't take any home remedies without consulting your doctor first.
After my IVF journey, every little ache used to terrify me. Lower back pain is usually just your body adjusting to the extra weight and hormones loosening your ligaments. Please stay gentle with yourself and rest as much as u can.
I had terrible backache too because of the posture shift. The pregnancy hormone relaxin loosens your joints to prepare for delivery, which strains the back. Wearing supportive footwear and using a feeding pillow later really helped me.
Please be very careful with back pain. While it's usually normal, if it's severe or accompanied by any cramping, you should immediately inform your gynac. I had some complications in my pregnancy, so I always advise reaching out to your doctor first.
My doctor explained that the hormone relaxin relaxes the ligaments in your pelvis to prepare for birth, making the joints loose and causing strain. Combined with the shift in your posture, back pain is super common. She advised me to avoid lifting heavy things and maintain good posture.
Hey, don't stress too much about it! Your baby is growing and shifting your balance, so your back muscles are working overtime. Try some warm compress or ask your husband for a gentle rub, it helps a lot.
It's a very common symptom caused by hormonal changes and your growing belly shifting your center of gravity. Try to avoid standing for long periods and use a maternity support pillow while sleeping. If the pain is sharp or unbearable, always let your doctor know.
