what the dumb nurse meant is if u have constant low pain aches, thats most likely back labor, and u should always watch for those.
Yeah, the nurse at the ER I went to told me that when I have hip/back pains that means I'm having a contraction, and never having a baby I don't know what the h*ll a contraction is! So I freaked out and my OB was like no that's completely normal, I don't even know what she's talking about
Your hips are probably killing u because the tendons/muscles that are used to holding them are weak and loose, and ur hips are becoming farther apart.
