So I have an old back injury and up until I found out I was pregnant I took a muscle relaxer daily per Drs orders. Between the injury, the extra weight (from bloating) and the hormones it has been hurting pretty bad the last 2 days.

Has anyone else experienced this issue? I have been using my heating pad on low but is there any thing else that I could do? and how soon is too soon to use a belly band or something similar, to help carry the extra weight?
