Earlyish back pain?

[Yankees21]

I've had a few days this week of really bad back pain..I'm not quite 25 weeks and haven't gained all that much weight so it's freaking me out! Anyone else experience that? Remedies?

I was really uncomfortable from like 25-28 weeks, including back pain. Prenatal yoga exercises did help relieve some of the discomfort. It ended up going away around the start of third tri, and I'm just now getting uncomfortable again (and I'm huge and have gained a lot of weight).

yep - baths helped alot. It got alot better when the belly got bigger - go figure lol.

When my ligaments started stretching I had back pain that was like nerve pinching pain for 2 weeks straight. I had to have my back adjusted. After everything cracked I've felt better ever since.

Ditto OPs - that was a bad time for back pain. Now, not so much. Epsom salt baths and a heating pad rock. Acupuncture was so-so for me, though I did get some relief from "cupping" (where they suction cups to your back to encourage blood flow.

I had terrible back pain at 21-22 weeks. I bought a snoogle and have been sleeping on my side (I'm usually a tummy sleeper) and it is better now.
