Could be pregnancy related, if so, I couldn't advise... However, kidney stones cause sharp breath taking pain as well, and they happen on either side of the back about midway up. Just something to consider. They can be excruciating and can even cause vomiting. I'd call your doc if its bad pain, either way.
