Serious back pain!!

The past 3 days I have been experiencing some major back pain! I believe it is the way the baby is positioned- pushing on a nerve but it doesn't go away when I change positions. I have also noticed when my back starts to hurt that my stomach gets pretty hard. Are these BH? What can I do to relieve the pain? Today my back has been in pain ever since I woke up

    It sounds like they could be, especially if the hardening is more upper belly than lower. I had a week of that, she could not get comfortable and the only way to stop it was to stand. I stood at work for 4 days at my desk and she finally rolled away and calmed down. I did call my MW and ended up in L&D when she clocked a contraction going on for 80secs. I was out in 2 hours when all was clear but it's worth a check.

    I've been having the same thing. Using a heating pad and soaking in the tub has helped some.

    It could be BH and it could be regular contractions. Some women have back labor but you would start to see some progression in contractions if that were the case.

    I've had this happen twice now in two days. Oddly both times have been when I was in a vehicle. Friday night it happened for 40 minutes straight while I was driving home from work and I could barely stand it to drive. Yestwrday it happened again but for maybe 15 minutes.

    I am having this too. My lower back hurts pretty much all the time now and it is worse when I am having a BH (I think I have finally figured out when I am having a BH). I think she is positioned on a nerve because it has gotten worse as she gets lower. I wish I had a tub that was big enough to relax in (ours is so tiny!). Stretching had helped me some and my husband rubbing my back helps too.

    I have these pains too. I had an inflatable swimming tube that my belly fits in and I can lay on my tummy for a while for some relief. Makes it easier to get a relaxed back rub too. The sad part is my dog popped it and I havebt had a chance to see if I can find a new one. Maybe try this out?
