sharp?

[tryin4baby]

hi ladies, just wondering is it normal to have back pain this early? im 7 weeks tomorrow.
i keep having sharp pains in my back on and off, and also around my hips. is it okay? i worry over everything

It is normal, and I have had back pain from the very beginning. I sometimes suffer from bad back anyway, but I can hardly bend over forwards properly now and have to get my boyfriend to empty the dishwasher and the washing machine....quite handy really

I think it is mostly to do with hormones. There is one called relaxin that allows for all the growing and stretching about to go on in your pelvic region and I think this is responsible for the aches.

i can bend and stuff, its not achey or sore its just shooting kinda pains :S

it can be normal, yes. are you constipated? i was constipated and had some bad lower back pains. also, a tilted uterus can give you more lower back pain. good luck!

yes that was one of my early signs that made me think im pregnant. sharp shooting pain when moving certain ways it went away after a few weeks. i hope you feel better soon

yeah i am constipated although i did kind of go last night and tonight but it was nothing really(sorry tmi).
also for some reason i got it into my head than im having an ectopic but everyones telling me im just being silly.

i have pains (not bad) on the left side of my pelvis but i sometimes have them on the right to. ive had no bleeding what so ever, not even IB. ive got really bad nasuea and have been sick a few times. eases off towards the evenings. i feel lightheaded towards the evenings aswell but i guess this is because im not eating like i should be. my pregnancy tests have got darker and darker. i dont a cb digi at 15dpo and that said 2-3 weeks where as people i know who done cb digi at that time had a 1-2 weeks.
someone please tell me im being stupid??x

The pains in your sides sound lime round ligament pains..... I too had them with both of my pregnancies and both times and this time have thought that it was ectopic. It can also be that your ovaries are twitching lol while still producing the progesterone. Have you had a scan yet? I'm sure everything is ok but I also completely understand the paranoia about every little twitch ping and pain. I'm on number three and I'm more paranoid with this one than the last two after ttcing for this one! But it's been 6 years since my last pregnancy and I didn't plan that one....... But wow do it notice everything and fear any cramps or discomfort....... 12week mark isn't coming fast enough best of luck and hope that helped you a bit

Also hip and buttocks pain( basically feeling like someone used your butt cheeks as a punching bag) is sciatica from what my ob nurse told me! This I did t have with my first two but man oh man I got it with this one and I'm just going on 6 weeks tommorrow

 

[tryin4baby]

thanks hun. that has helped alot.
this is my first and im really worried and also because i am so young.
the 12 week mark is taking forever to come and especially with ms i want it to come even faster. good luck with your pregnancy

it could also be ligaments stretching, or the corpus luteum cyst being a little bigger than normal. dont stress too much, its not good for u! try to take it easy

Just remember that there is alot going on inside you right now and it being your first I know how scary that can be. As long as cramps are mild and not accompanied with bleeding it is perfectly normal. I had to re read all that stuff again today for myself lol
