Backaches in 1st trimester

Hello mummies, this is my first pregnancy and around 7 weeks. Last visit to gynae last week we heard heartbeats but doc said the embryo is on the smaller side based on the gestation period. Hopefully in couple of weeks the little one will grow bigger and with stronger heartbeat. Anyway I've been experiencing backaches since week 5. More so now, however no spotting. Anyone else experiencing this? #1stimemom

yes! backache is normal โ˜บ๏ธ I read few articles saying that our body is preparing, uterus expanding and muscles adjusting. ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿป be strong mummy!

i had back ache too during my 1st trimester. my doctor only allowed me to take panadol when it's too bad. take care!

Yes it's normal! I'm week 8, had and still having back/lower abdomen ache. I take panadol if it's too bad.โ˜บ๏ธ

Yes, I have back aches, too, at the first 1st trimester. Stretching exercises help a lot.
