Back Ache Remedies?

cedenscedens member
in 2nd Trimester

so, i am beginning to notice that after i eat, my back seems to tighten (i guess when my stomach is distended from food)- it's like my belly is getting bigger from baby and then wen i eat food, it pushes it over the edge and makes it hard for my back or something~

just wondering if anyone else is experiencing back pain (like this or something different) and wat they are doing about it!

i sit at a desk all day long too (i dont think that helps my case at all)~ tried doing stretches but my belly seems to be in the way (it's not that huge yet, but enough where i am feeling a major difference when i bend over and such).

    I've had severe back pain since getting KU.

    My doc has suggested a belt that goes below your belly and rests supporting your back and belly at the same time.  I don't need it yet, b/c I have no belly but it might help you.

    Other things I have been doing:  hot baths, heating pad, tylenol and massages.

    My doc says later on I may need physical therapy (I actually broke my back as a teenager) or a chiropractor.  If it's severe, I would discuss your options with your doc. :)
    good luck! BP sucks!

    Yoga, massages from DH, and sleeping with a pillow between my legs has helped me.
