Belly and lower back pain during pregnancy

Abdominal cramps, the tension in the kidneys, back pain... During pregnancy, these pains are frequent. What are the causes and how can they be reduced?


With the weight gain and the baby making her place, you will feel pains in the belly and in the back. It's normal as the baby settles down: ligaments and tissues relax, causing tensions in the abdomen which can go to the lower back.

Resting calms the cramps. The tip? Apply a hot water bottle to the area of pain for optimal relaxation. If you are worried about the pain or if it is accompanied by bleeding, don't hesitate to consult your midwife or obstetrician to be reassured.

I’ve had the same thing going on just minus the headaches.. my last period started a couple days earlier than expected (which usually doesn’t happen it’s usually right on time) then it got light after just 2 days then I was spotting light brown & some pink discharge..

Is it bad pain if so you need to go to the ER but sometimes in early pregnancy your lower back and stomach do hurt but it shouldn’t be very bad.
