Q: Lower Back Pain

Hey girls! I'll be 34 weeks on Wednesday, but this weekend has been horrible (body wise). Sorry if TMI, but I've had diarrhead the past two days, just at random times (one time each day) and I've felt just sick to my stomach. Which seems weird to me, because I'm on iron pills and they were making me somewhat constipated. Then last night, I went to the store, and kept having those wonderful shooting pains in my who-ha. Smile

lol. And now today my lower back is absolutely killing me!

I hope it's just me, when I keep thinking that these are all connected and it's maybe a sign of labor. I don't know anymore. Anyone have any advice? Confused

Thanks!

No not yet...the office is closed for lunch. And I dont want to go to the hospital if its nothing, because my father has messed up my insurance, so I currently dont have insurance until I send him a letter from my school.

Hmm, I think you have a tummy bug and the other shooting pains, if not consistent, are not related.

But, like Suzy said, it is always safer just to call your doctor's office and see what they want you to do.

Backache is very common in pregnancy ~ especially the later stages when you have to compensate for a larger belly.

Still, a call to your doctor's office is probably in order. That is what you are paying him for Smile

LOL True. I have to give them a call anyway when they open back up in a half hour, so I'll just ask about that.
