Lower back pain

Hi everyone I am 6weeks 5 days pregnant with my first and today I have had the most painful lower back pain ever. I am just wondering if this is normal and if it is what can I do for some relief. My first appointment isn’t until February 10th. I have a high pain tolerance but this pain has caused me to sweat profusely and cry hard 🥺 someone help a first time momma out!

Re: Lower back pain

  • Congratulations! I’m not as far along as you, but I’ve been having back pain too! I’ve read that it can be normal stretching of the ligaments and things loosening due to all of the progesterone. I didn’t have this in my other pregnancies though.
    The intensity of your pain sounds a bit concerning. You might try calling your provider to see if there’s a nurse you can speak with while you wait for your first appt 🙂

  • I have had some lower back pain, but I would get checked out if it's making you sweat and cry because that sounds like something that needs to be looked at, so you can hopefully get some reassurance and maybe pain relief :(

  • I went to a chiropractor! It helped tremendously!!!
  • I was having some lower back pain and full body stretching has been a HUGE help. I highly recommend an exercise ball, inflated about 70-80% fill. This has been a great addition for stretching and mobility.
