Talk to experienced gynaecologist online and get your health questions answered in just 5 minutes.
Hello there,
The pain that you have explained may be due to various reasons…but the most common reason is the pain due to stretching of your round ligament (a ligament connected to your uterus) due to your increasing uterus size.
However, if that pain is associated with any bleeding/spotting it is not normal, you must also need to exclude whether there is any urinary tract infection or not.

Back pain at this stage, especially one-sided, is often muscular or ligament-related as your uterus grows, but it's worth ruling out other causes.
Next Steps
Mention this to your obstetrician at your next visit, or sooner if it's severe or persistent.
Health Tips
Seek care right away if it comes with bleeding, contractions, or fluid leakage.
