Back pain- what's normal?

I've read back pain is normal. I've read back pain can be a bad sign. I had a loss in my family and we've both been sleeping very minimal and lightly lately, but on top of that, MY BACK IS KILLING ME. I have to switch sides every 5 minutes, I have to put pressure on it when I'm standing up. It's just awful. But is it just another fun pregnancy thing or is it something that warrants an OB call?

  • I'd just go see your chiropractor and get an adjustment. I've been having pain in my lower back and hips since like week 8 and that's been the only thing that's helped.

  • I had back pain to begin with (on and off for years) and started seeing a chiropractor a couple weeks ago. I knew it would only get worse as I got further along if I didn't do something!! Feeling much better after 3 visits and she explained the changes that happen in your spine and posture while pregnancy progresses and it makes sense that back pain would result!!
