Lower back pain at 8 weeks

Im only 8 weeks+ but my lower back and buttocks hurt so bad. Sleeping on my side seems to relieve some of the pain but when i wake up tomorrow it starts hurting again. How to relieve this pain? Should i see a doctor?

Totally understand how you feel! I’m also 8 weeks 5 days, carrying twins and my lower back is also hurting very badly. Very hard to walk for long periods. There’s not much we can do to relieve the pain as most medications are not suitable during pregnancy. I have slipped disc in my L4 and L5 as well so the pain is unbearable at times 😭

Oh no :( hope it gets easier for us!

the uterus is growing and sits on the nerves that’s causing the pain. once it grows and moves away the pain will go away too. it’s normal so just tahan for now
