What should I do if I have back pain during my 3rd month of pregnancy?

Many mothers will experience back pain after becoming pregnant, especially in the early stages of pregnancy. In fact, these are all normal reactions to early pregnancy, but mothers who don’t know may think they have some disease or are feeling unwell. Back pain can be very uncomfortable. Today we will learn about the causes of back pain, as well as other precautions for pregnant women.

It is normal to experience back pain in early pregnancy. Because the baby is implanting, it will stimulate the pregnant mother to experience these symptoms. Pregnancy causes changes in hormone secretion in the body. In order for the baby to pass through the birth canal smoothly during delivery, the pregnant mother's body will secrete a hormone during pregnancy that relaxes the ligaments connecting the pelvis, causing the curvature of the spine to increase, so it is easy to feel back pain. It is a common disease during pregnancy. Mild cases include back pain, while severe cases are also accompanied by leg cramps, sciatica and other symptoms.

After a woman becomes pregnant, as the pregnancy progresses, the uterus slowly enlarges, the support force of the waist continues to increase, and the round ligament of the uterus relaxes due to long-term traction, causing the sacrospinous ligament to relax, compressing the pelvic nerves and blood vessels, causing many expectant mothers to feel back pain. This type of low back pain will generally disappear gradually as the waist muscle strength recovers after delivery. The causes of low back pain in early, mid and late pregnancy are different. Low back pain in the early pregnancy stage will not be very serious, the pain is relatively mild, and is mostly back pain.

During the third month of pregnancy, the fetus is very active. This month, the fetus begins to kick its legs, suck its fingers, and other activities. When you touch the fetus's head, buttocks, and other parts of the body through the mother's body, fetal education through touch is one of the ways for pregnant mothers to communicate with the fetus.

After pregnancy, if you have back pain, you must pay attention to rest. This is a critical time for mothers. Do not do any strenuous exercise, especially do not have sexual intercourse, otherwise it will easily lead to miscarriage. If you have lower abdominal pain and bleeding, you should also pay attention to it, as it may be an ectopic pregnancy or threatened miscarriage.
