16 weeks preggy

I’m only 16 weeks 2 days preggy with my second and i look like i’m 6 months pregnant and having a very bad backache near my tailbone. Anybody else experience this too? What do you do to ease the pain?

Try to have a better posture by standing upright. Cos as baby grows the centre of your gravity shifts. Wear low-heeled not flat shoes with good arch support. Avoid high heels, which can further shift your balance forward and cause you to fall. You might also consider wearing a maternity support belt. Try heating pads or cold pack. Light massage at the back is fine too. Exercises for the back, such as low back stretch, can help ease backaches. Heres a link to some vids. https://youtu.be/S3xXurLpfDk https://youtu.be/sT56d6cJoNA
