14 weeks and lower back pain

[Nina83]

My back started hurting yesterday at work, the only thing that helps is if I sort of hunch over or sit in an odd position.
I have a gel pack, that I put between my char and my back, it's cool so gives me come comfort, but it still really hurts.
I've got a foot rest, but that doesn't help much.
It really hurts, could it be my chair or something? This hasn't happened before so I'm guessing it is pregnancy related.
Is it normal though? I thought lower back pain wasn't good, or maybe that was just in the first tri?

If you work behind a desk all day it could be your chair or simply the fact that you're sitting all day. I had back back pains when I was pregnant with my first and worked in an office. I had to bring a cushion to put behind my back to make it more comfortable. I would get your seating position checked out to be sure you're sitting correctly. Back pains are pretty common in pregnancy sucks ay. Hope you manage to find some relief

Thanks, I think it is from the chair
I was away at a meeting for about three hours, was sitting obviously and I was fine. 5 minutes after I sit back down in my chair my back hurts again.
Ugh
