Discomfort in early pregnancy

2 results for "I am 7 weeks pregnant. I have been experiencing pains in my lower back and a very uncomfortable feeling in my stomach (almost feels huge as if I'm full term) The Dr said everything is good. I even heard my baby's heartbeat. 3 years ago I had a tragic miscarriage and I'm stressed to death. How long will these pains be there? Has anyone else experienced it? The discomfort is horrifying

Oh goodness - I felt exactly the same way during my 2 pregnancies that came after my last loss. It was stressful in a way I wasn't expecting, and very consuming. I found the physical discomforts tended to subside around the second trimester, and it got somewhat less stressful when I reached the point were the babies moved regularly and I could feel it. But honestly, it was never easy. The good news is that when the baby is finally here, the feeling of relief and joy is indescribable.  Good luck to you, and hang in there!
