Pain

I am 21w 5d pregnant and have terrible back pain. I can hardly get out of bed and I am in tears from the feeling I get. It is a constant shooting pain on the lower rights side of my back. Does anyone know what I should do?? My doctor says it is normal but I have not slept more then 5 hours in the last 4 days and I am cranky. My boyfriend has me moody and nasty all the time and I feel horrible for being so snappy with him lately.

Thanks all.

Hi!  I'm sorry you're in so much pain!  But unfortunately, it is very normal.  Sometimes that pain can be something else, but if the doctor has looked at you and says it's normal, then it's probably just one of the many "growing pains" we get!  My left hip hurts so much sometimes I can barely walk straight!  But yesterday I got a quick 15 minute massage where they focused on my pain and it made a world of difference!  Also, yuo can take Tylenol, it's safe.  I hope it helps!
