Back Pain
Pregnancy back pain plus bowel disease making work especially hard.How do people cope?
I’m only 19 months pregnant and I’m already suffering from bad back pain. I also have Ulcerative Colitis that is making life/work so much harder. How do women cope? Do you just carry on and try to be tough or get a doctor to sign you off work?
Pregnant women tend to suffer more back pains because of hormonal changes. Even constipation can be experience during pregnancy.
In your case, it is indeed very risky, I think you need to consult your OBGYNE regarding your pregnancy. it is important to know the right medication for you. You have to take care of yourself in as much as you take care of your baby.
Some pregnant women use belly belt and there is another one that is in demand to help relieve back pain the Posture brace corrector. It can be worn under your shirt and very easy to use.
Back Pain
37 weeks pregnant and experiencing lower back pain with diarrhea. Could this be the start of labor?
I’ve had severe diarrhea and terrible lower back pain all morning. It’s a very consistent dull pain. I am 37 weeks. Could this be the start of labor?
Sounds like it! Diarrhea is very common right before or at the start of labor because your body naturally kind of cleans itself out to allow the baby to pass through more easily. Lower back pain is also very common, depending on how the baby is lying. Just be sure to pay attention to contractions that get consistently stronger and closer together, and of course if your water breaks call your doc or go in right away. Good luck!
