Brutal back pain!!

hey guys.... it seems like ive had nothing but problems during this pregnancy!! im finding it hard to enjoy it!! for the last couple of days ive been having wicked brutal back pain. it is in the middle of my back. it keeps me up at night... and it feels better if i hunch over as far as i can go. im not sure if its related to the pain i was having in my lower left stomach area or my bladder issue. i am so uncomfortable! ive used a heating pad every night...any suggestions?

I just googled crocs, and they say they have good support.  Who knows.

It may have nothing to do with it, but are you wearing supportive shoes.  Early is my pregnancy I was having terrible back pain.  I started wearing shoes, and the back pain improved.
Hope you get some real relief soon!

i am 22 weeks. i went home yesterday after work, and cried. i hurt soooo bad. then i had to go to a dance recital with a friend and had to sit in an uncomfortable chair for 3 1/2 hours!! when i got home i laid on a heating pad until i fell asleep. ive tried the warm baths, and my hubby has rubbed my back everyday. my whole back right down my spine feels bruised almost. even if he pushes very very lightly on my back... i hurt!

I am 34.6 weeks pregnant and I am having the same pains. I actually have to pop my back. I am with sexyhot_dandy that I really dont think I am going to make it to June... I use extra pillows on my back for extra support. You can also try a warm bath that will help relax your muscles...
