Hey everyone, just wanted a general consensus on how many are already experiencing bad lower back pain, I’m in my 11th week and for the last few days have been in so much pain... my non doctor guess is that my stomach and core are relaxing and thus I’m putting more pressure on my back than I realise.. thoughts? Or “me too’s“?
Me too, but mine started at 8 weeks (am 10 w 4d). But this is my second baby, so we'll see. The joints are ment to be relaxing at this point, so lower back pain is common. Is this your first pregnancy?
Me.. ftm here, Mine started around week 11. I'm 13w5d and it was pretty bad last night too.. hoping it doesn't get any worse than what it was for a little while but I'm sure it will..
@lotsico - welcome to the group! Please read the “Read this first” thread when you get a chance. We have a weekly symptoms thread to collect questions like this in hopes that the same question doesn’t get asked 50 times and to facilitate comparing experiences. You can find the current thread here:
Yep. Third pregnancy and baby here- will probably experience it most of my pregnancy. I see a pelvic floor physical therapist who helps tremendously. Plus the use of a belly brace later on.
If I am sitting or even sleeping for long periods of time and I get up my pelvic bones/ butt feel like they have popped out and are grinding. It isn't pleasant! I also have tailbone issues from previous injuries that hurt a lot now. I feel your misery!

As for me, at 13w5d, I have not been experiencing lower back pain. Everyone’s body is different.
