During pregnancy, a woman’s body undergoes rapid structural, hormonal, and physical transformations. As the baby grows, your center of gravity shifts forward, greatly increasing the arch in your lower back. Concurrently, the hormone relaxin softens pelvic ligaments, placing intense mechanical strain on the lower spine.
Symptoms of Prenatal Back Discomfort
- Deep, aching lower back pain that intensifies after walking or standing
- Sharp pelvic girdle pain located at the front or back of the hips
- Severe muscular fatigue across the mid-back caused by supporting extra weight
- Difficulty finding a comfortable, pain-free position to rest or sleep at night
