37 weeks and in pain

[Kristinalynn21]

Hi, i just turned 37 weeks yesterday and ever since this afternoon i have been experiencing severe back pain in the middle and lower of my back, i tried bathing and i tried heat and ice. The pain wont go away wether i sit stand or lay. Its really making me cry and making me feel really sick. Im currently laying on my back with my legs propped up. Anyone know what the pain could be? Dont wanna go to the hospital or call the doctor if i really dont need to.

Well i had my apointment and she just talked to me an asked me why i havnt gained weight in a month and she didnt check me or anything just listened to the heartbet. Now im having pains like if i had to pee really bad and someone was pushing on your bladder but its all around like around my lower back to my lower tummy. Ugh the agony

Thanks. I eventually fell asleep, i have an appoinment on thursday so i hopefully i get some answers. My midwife doesnt seem too worried so maybe i shouldnt be.

It could be because you baby turned the wron way and is facing your tummy (back to back) it is a huge cause of sudden back pain, and you laying on your back would make things worse. Hands and knees, pelvic tilt is the best position because it turns the baby around

Um it sounds like labour. Phone the Hospital.
