Back Ache early on in pregnancy!

[Krippy]

Hi Ladies...I was just looking for some support and positive stories! I have a pretty bad back ache that started this evening and everything I read says that it is normal (caused by hormones and stretching, etc.) but I am still pretty worried. I don't have any bleeding or anything so I am fine there. Any of you experience this so early on in your pregnancy? I don't remember if I had this with my first pregnancy or not...I really want this rainbow to stay. Any stories or support welcome! Thank you for listening!

Hi Krippy. I am right there with you on this one and will return to see what others have said.
My back started hurting me yesterday morning. Really sore, but in the middle/upper part of my back. It hurt all day. I tried to vacuum and I had to stop. Today I am 5.4
weeks.
My last mc was 2 years ago, but I did keep a record of everything, and it seems that at 6.4 weeks I had a terrible back ache, just like this one. It has got me so worried. Today my back feels better.
I'm sure we are both ok and are just having a bit of stretching going on.

Thanks buttercup! I feel much better this morning!

Backaches are very common in early pregnancy, just as you said from things stretching and whatnot. I have it already, terrible because I've had an injury in my lower back. I've read to use heating pads/ice packs and switch on and off every so often can help. I'm just suffering thru it as I'm too scared to take anything

Thanks Sam! It is good to know that I am not alone!
