About two-thirds of 2nd trimester pregnant women develop low back pain. Usually, it occurs because the growing abdomen is placing strain on the back muscles and causing changes in posture.
Next Steps
Practice good posture
When lifting a small object, squat down and lift with your legs. Don't bend at the waist or lift with your back. It's also important to know your limits. Ask for help if you need it.
Sleep on your side
Try heat, cold or massage
Include physical activity in your daily routine
Regular physical activity can keep your back strong and might relieve back pain during pregnancy.
You might also stretch your lower back. Rest on your hands and knees with your head in line with your back. Pull in your stomach, rounding your back slightly. Hold for several seconds, then relax your stomach and back — keeping your back as flat as possible. Gradually work up to 10 repetitions.
