Is back pain a side of premature labor? I'm 30 weeks and have had back pain/cramping on and off all day. It just started to get worse. I called my OB's office I'm still waiting to hear back from my doctor.

It can be. Especially if baby is posterior. But usually, it’s just a side effect of pregnancy.

@mrschanandlerbong95, the placenta? I'm anterior so idk what that would mean. This is my first pregnancy so I'm assuming maybe just back pain but It started getting pretty bad and happening on and off the past couple hours

If the baby is posterior- if the baby’s spine is facing your spine and it’s front is facing your front. Sometimes they call it “sunny side up” or “face up”.
