I get pain in my back occasionally, but mostly when they have me lifting things.  Guess the Air Force doesn't care if I hurt myself so long as they get their stuff done.

Speaking of sounding like a crazy paranoid lady, I was in my therapist's office the other day, talking through my week, and every other sentence out of my mouth was, "I'm going to kick him (or her)."  Finally I just said, "I'm gonna kick everyone.  Just take turns!"  Yeah, I know crazy.  She said it's just the hormones and it goes away in a couple of months.  Hopefully I won't get locked up for battery before then.  :/

I have occasional cramping, getting less and less though.  I have problems with my back prior to getting pregnant, so I'm not sure how much of my occasional back pain is from being pregnant, or just my back the way it is.  I do take Tylenol for my back, and my doctors are aware of it.

I have occasional pains in my back or abdoment.  I don't remember having them in my other three pregnancies, but maybe I just forget.
Anyway, it sounds like a common symptom.  I'll bet you're doing fine. = )

I still get paranoid when my back hurts, it is always my lower back.  And I still can't quite get used to the cramping or stretching really in my uterus.  Mine seem to get worse each month when AF would be do...so far this is the first month I haven't had spotting during that time, but I am 12 weeks this week and it sure feels different.  What week are you at now?  I should know by now, but I forget :)  For me, as my tummy gets bigger and the baby grows everything seems to feel different for my body...

I am having lower back pain while I try to sleep. I am also having dull pains in my stomach from time to time. So I would have to say thats normal. I mean after all there is a baby growing in there, he he. Good luck I bet your doing fine.
