Hello. Can anybody help me? I am 7 weeks pregnant and I am in UNBEARABLE lower back pain!!! This started about 2 weeks ago with some mild back pain that has continued to get worse each day. Now I am at the pain that I cannot sit,stand,or even lay down without unbelievable lower back pain. It is even starting to go down my legs and wrapping around my waist! I went to the doctor and he said that he thought it was just my body getting ready for the baby to grow, but my OBGYN disagreed...they said that the hormone that would cause your body to expand and start to make room wouldn't happen until much later in my pregnancy. The pain was so bad that I ended up in the ER last night! They did an ultrasound and said that everything looked good with the baby and they wern't sure why I was having so much pain. I have a 2 year old and I didn't have any back pain with him during my pregnancy. Does anybody have any answers? I would really appreciate if somebody who have gone through something like this would let me know if this is "normal" or something I need to worry about!
