Back pain

My back hurts SO bad. It’s not excruciating, or anything. But my lower back aches all the time. I can’t sleep comfortably. Transitioning from position to position is rough. Is it normal to have back pain early in pregnancy? I had some when I was further along, but I’m only 6 weeks. Should I be worried about this?

I had back pain my WHOLE pregnancy. Try a warm compress, heating pad or one of those rice socks you put in the microwave.

I felt like I'd been punched in the back quite often. I hope it's only temporary.

Have you gone to you first appointment yet? Maybe call and ask. Did you do something to strain yourself?

The times that I had back pain in early pregnancy it was caused by kidney infections (which I think are more common while pregnant). I had no other symptoms to let me know something was wrong.
You may want to call your doctor's office and just run it by them.

My appointment is Thursday.

I know everything happens earlier the second time around, and I am carrying an extra 25 pounds this time. But it still makes me nervous because I've been crampy and blah so much.

Congratulations! I missed this news. My back was sore a lot when I was pregnant. I don't know about that early though.
