Back pain anyone?

Im sure this question has been asked/answered a million times but... DH & I were goofing around earlier & he kept trying to stick his finger in my nose (he knows that completely skeeves me out!)  I just naturally reacted & jumped off of the couch to get away from him & instantly felt this pain in my lower back. Its been a few hours & seems like its getting worst. Ugh. Any suggestions? Thanks!

That doesn't really sound baby related.  Honestly, it sounds like you strained or pulled something in your back.  What can anyone say really without seeing you in a professional setting.  Your story kinda says it all.  You jumped off the couch and hurt your back.

ETA: Ah, but suggestions!  Sorry, I didn't answer that part   How about a heating pad for awhile?  Do you see a chiropractor?  If you don't already have a chiropractor you might call around.  The one I see now has a massage therapist on staff so if you are there for treatment you can get a massage and it's run through my insurance!

You mean your DH likes to bug you, too?! *sigh*

 I agree with the heating pad recommendation. I have a lot of hip pain right now...it was recommended Heating Pad and Ice Pack....thirty minutes on, thirty minutes off...for each. If you use the heating pad, make sure you have clothing and a towel between you and the pad. I agree with the Chiropractor, too. I see mine a LOT right now. It really helps. As for a massage therapist...I wish I had one.

 You can try and guilt trip your hubs into a back massage. Or just ask.

I didnt have a heating pad but borrowed a heating blanket from my neighbor & it worked great! Pain free right now!
