Lower back pain

by SS77, Mar 20, 2009 08:28AM
Hi ladies,

I found out this week that I am pregnant. Don't know my due date, but think it is around November 24th. I have been feeling fine until last night I started to have lower back pain. I can get lower back pain if I move to many heavy things. Not uncommon for me, but now I'm worried since I'm pregnant that maybe it could be a first sign of miscarriage. I have had 3 children and had never had a miscarriage. I do remember when I first got pregnant with my second that I had lower back pain and thought it was premenstrual sign, but turns out I was pregnant. Should I worry?

Lower back pain is very normal during pregnancy - if you start bleeding, passing clots, or have severe cramping that would be cause for concern.

Also, you should refrain from moving heavy things during pregnancy!

Thanks. I'm trying not to lift anything heavy. Sometimes it seems like just the everyday stuff probably made my back start to hurt. I did a urine test today to see if it was a UTI, but that so far is negative. Starting to feel a little better.

Glad to here your feeling a little better - back pain can be a nightmare.
