How can I help the back pain Im having because of my pregnancy.?

What helped me most during both of my pregnancies (and this sounds crazy) was getting on my hands and knees and raising my back in an arch and then lowering as far as you can. It may help now, but it will really give you relief when your huge. Try it and see if it works for you.

ok...first i want to say that a warm bath is NOT bad for a baby in ANYWAYSHAPEORFORM. Your stomach will feel like its stretching, thats very common, and unfortunately since youre just gonna get bigger, it doesnt really go away. I have had really bad back pain that brought me to tears during this pregnancy (im 38 weeks), and my doctor refered me to a physical therapist a couple months ago. it was a god sent. try hot and cold packs and stretching like others have recommended, thats what the pt said to do at home. also, invest in one of the maternity belts, see if your doc can write you a prescription for it and see if your insurance will cover it even (some do, some dont). luckily my physical therapist specializes in womens issues (like pregnancy) so she is very good and knows what shes doing. i have been going 2x a week, and every time i walk out, i feel so much better than when i went in. basically talk to your doctor, they should be able to refer you or help you out if your back pain is that bad. i do know what is bad for a baby though...having a mommy that is stressed and in constant pain, that IS proven to put some stress on a baby. :) good luck

Try a chiropractor. I saw one all through my first pregnancy and again with this one. It really helped me. The middle of their tables drop down for your belly as you grow. Their are some that cater to pregnant women too. Just ask about their experience with pregnant patients. Other than that, you can ask your OB to refer you to a physical therapist who can also do some manipulation to your back to help align your spine and also help you with stretches and exercises to help strengthen your back. Good luck.

DO NOT do the warm bath thing - is bad for baby.

If tylenol's not working, then there's not really a whole lot you can do. You can try stretching, but more than likely you'll just have to deal with it.

Massaging the back muscles will reduce the pain.Apply an icepack to the affected area. This will make the area numb and reduce the pain. More details and remedies at http://aches.in/backpainremedies.html

Talk to your doc the next time you see him. He may be able to give you hints on posture, sitting standing, stretching etc. Don't try to rely on drugs for anything when you are pregnant.

Try doing some long slow stretching.

stretching, warm bath, massages. just a few things u could do.

Take a warm bath or wrap a heating padd ina towel and place it on your back. it's hard to deal with this, one weekend my back hurt so bad i could barely walk and hten it fianlly went away. good luck and rest

yoga. they have pregnant yoga tapes. its basically slow stretching like everyone else says.
