Early pregnancy and persistant lower backache

[BekZ]

Hi Everyone,

I am 6 wks and since becoming pregnant I have had this persistant lower backache. It won't go away. I also have a mild prolaspe. Could a weakened pelvic floor be the reason for this backache?

I have no idea sorry - but I do want to say congrats! I had no idea you were pg again!

I'm 7 weeks along and I have a sore / stiff lower back too. I also have had a lot of back problems so I guess not too surprising. But doing some stretches should help out - gentle ones that they recomend for pregnancy such as yoga. They have been helping me a lot

Good luck.

Tril - thanks for the congrates. I haven't made an offical announcement yet. I am going for a u/s on dec 1. If all is well I'll make it offical.

Ryatha - Congrates on your pregancy.

I suppose it doesn't help my back when I am contantly bending over to hlep Loren walk or get her out of the cot!!!!
