    Get an appointment tomorrow with a physio or chiro. They will be able to relieve some of the pain for you. I saw a physio during my last trimester for DS1 and it was just plain heaven! I couldn't lay on my tummy or back, just worked whatever was comfortable and is was great.
    When you ring, tell them you are prengant how far along and what has happend, you should be able to get in straight away.
    Where are you having baby? Ring the hospital and check with the Mid Wives (or Feeb??)

    Have you googled for information? Thats what I usually do if I'm not sure and I can't get any info from a chemist.

    I took prednisolone when I was pregnant for asthma. If you're unsure though don't take it until you speak to a dr or phamicist.

    Hope you feel better soon A.

    Prednisolone is a steriod so I would be careful taking it whilst pg without talking to your doc. Poor thing a sore back is the worst.

    I had back pain at 37 weeks, couldn't walk also, had a Drs app that morning, really struggled, he said panadol, or panadine, heat pack, rest!!!! I know thats not much comfort, I just layed on the couch, then got up and would walk around for a bit, then lay again. I found if I layed too long it made things worse. I also got in the shower in baby pose, (yoga), I think thats whats its called and let the warm to hot water run on my lower back, it was really good if you can get in the shower. Or maybe a bath with some Radox muscle soak?? Good luck, hope you fell better today.
