Back Pain PSA

Just throwing this out there-- I was having really bad low back pain last weekend but assumed it was muscles/ regular pregnancy issue, whatever. I happened to have an OB appt on Monday morning and, bc of the pain, she ordered a urine culture. Aaaand turns out I had a UTI/bladder infection. 2 days of antibiotics later, I feel MUCH better. So, if you have back pain that doesn't quite feel like regular overworked back ouchies, something to consider! (I was having no other UTI symptoms, so I otherwise would have had no idea!)
