Anyone got any tips on how to relieve back pain?

I just soak in a warm bath hun x

bag of ice on the back, once your back goes freezing cold you can't feel a thing lol it's horrible but it works better than anything else I tried x

@Lauramorg, ive done the bath @katrainbird I'll try the ice now. So blooming uncomfortable 😭

let us know if it helps xx

Making me wanna relax in the bath now 😂

I used to sit with a bag of ice for 20 mins then nothing for 10 then hot water bottle fOR 20 mins .. Worked absolute wonders for me xx

The ice hasn't touched it. My back is so sore, it feels on fire!

how many weeks pregnant are you? x

22 weeks @katrainbird I've been in tears all eve with it! Xx

when did it start? I remember having a really bad lower backache when I was in labour? maybe the baby is leaning on a nerve? have you tried rolling around getting him/her to chance position? xx

I never tried ice @emmaelaine but I use one of those lavender wheat bags you warm up in the microwave after having a relaxing soak in a radox bath. You could use a hot water bottle as well I guess 😊

I thought she was just on a nerve as she's down really low -I can feel her in the top of my foof but she's moved a bit now as the pressure isn't so bad. I've got a tummy ache too now @katrainbird

I'm trying the heat wheat now @sara-lou fingers crossed that helps!

Hope it helps you. I had t bad first time thankfully it's not been as bad this time. If it carries on speak to your midwife. Maybe one of those support belts would help...

Thanks @sara-Lou xx

I've had an awful back throughout my whole pregnancy. Was in hospital two weeks ago in crippling pain. Try a warm bath, tiger balm works wonders. If it gets worse and you can't walk I would suggest a trip to gp. Who can prescribe some painkillers. I also have a bump band, when your bump gets bigger it can pull on your back, resulting in an even worse back pain. This helps just to give to bump some support. X

I've got a tubi grip for my bump, but I haven't tried it as just at home so not doing much now @amy101 but thanks.

I've text my boss -she's a midwife & has 4 kids of her own so I figure who better to ask! Hopefully she'll come back with a secret miracle cure! @amy101 @katrainbird @lauramorg @sara-lou @warrior @

Please share if she has @emmaelaine

@warrior, she didn't even reply 😒

How rude..
