my back has a pulse :/

[highhopes19]

what could this be?

ive had it a few days... it litrally takes my breathe away, its hard to explain what it feels like other than a really strong pain in my lower back that feels like a pulse for about 30-40 seconds and then stops, it doesnt come every few minutes just randomly .

also been getting really bad cramps that feel a bit like period pains, also the "runs" every now and then since friday which i put down to my metformin .

should i be worrying?

perhaps its some palpitations, they are fairly common in pregnancy.....I sometimes get them too, it feels like theres a HB in my back, usually I sit up and drink a nice big glass of water, as being dehydrated can bring them on....its nothing to worry about....our bodies are under extra strain during pregnancy, the heart has to work 50% harder...try to relax.

hi I know you wrote this along time ago but did you find out what it was?

Im on my third pregnancy and have the same problem. painful throbbing pulse in my lower back travels up to my neck and completely takes my breath away!!

It has happen in all my pregnancies. Iv told doctors, midwives and friends. No-one has heard of such a thing. I had a heart ECG during labour with my second - results showed nothing and a lengthy discussion with the midwives who delivered my 1st. No one knew. My own doctor didnt know either - his diagnosis was that if it only happens in pregnancy then it will dissappear when i give birth!! It is scary!!
