Back problems?

Question

Is anyone having back problems? I’m having a very hard time sitting in a regular chair for an extended period of time. This is a huge issue for me because my job requires me to sit at a computer for 8-10 hours a day, 5 days a week. If anyone had issues did you find anything that helped?

Answer

I worked a desk job during my last pregnancy and I did a few things to help. I set up a standing desk so that I could go from standing to sitting instead of sitting the whole time. I bought one of those mats that you put in front of your sink or wherever to have some extra cushion under my feet. I got one of those donuts to sit on... towards the end I even brought in my birth ball to sit on 🤣 there was no shame in my game. Anything to be more comfortable 🤷🏼‍♀️😜

Answer

I am having severe back pain in one tiny spot. Lower back, above my right leg. I have tried muscle runs and heating pads and no relief. Walking is painful and hard to get comfortable to sleep...I have no advice as I am miserable myself so if you find something that works, please let me know. Hang in there

Answer

A yoga ball helps me significantly. I didn’t realize how bad my hips and back felt in my regular chair until I sat on the ball and felt everything relax.

Answer

I had that with my first, I used a belly band to help me sit up a little straighter and a pillow behind my back at work on my computer chair. I also used a heating pad when I got home and that helped a little

Look up pregnancy yoga stretches for sciatic nerve problems! Even if it’s not your sciatic, the stretches can really help lower back pain! They’ve helped me a ton, and I totally ask my husband for back rubs all the time.

Answer

I'm not having much back pain yet but I remember reading that physical activity can be really helpful for pregnancy back pain. Walking, yoga, stretching.

Answer

Is it your whole back? My upper back has been killing me! I’ve been using a throw pillow at the small of my back while I sit and that seems to take the stress off my upper back. Maybe it’ll help you too..?

Answer

Oh yeah! Back problems for a bit now. I’m 24 weeks today and I can’t even get comfortable at night to sleep. Even with my pregnancy pillow.
