Why does my lower back hurt during floor ab exercises?

I’ve noticed it hurts A LOT. I use a yoga mat but it’s like one of my bones keeps poking me and I end up bruised the next day. I’m not bony at all and I hate that I can’t do ab exercises because of the pain and left over bruising.
The area I marked is where the pain is located. Could it be my form?
