Hey m 34 week pregnant, what should i do avoid back pain? I keep on changing sleeping position n pillow cushion etc.. Why saviour back pain occurs in trimester?
Dr.Aarushi Upadhyay (Thakkar)
hi , this is normal as baby grows inside and exerts pressure on back , etc trying to make space for its accommodation. it wil go away post delivery. keep trying various positions n see whichever gives u best relief as its diferent for every lady.

Back pain is common in pregnancy, please check with your OB/GYN if she can suggest some exercises, I have sciatica and it would pain a lot during pregnancy. My OB/GYN suggested prenatal yoga. I did yoga a home and with a week all the pain went away, I didn't have any back pain throughout the pregnancy later on.
