Backache mean miscarriage ?
Posted: 02-21-08 21:41pm

I just found out yesterday that i am pregnant again and i am approximately 2 to 3weeks(by my hcg levels). I have had 2 miscarriages in the last 7months and this is now my third pregnancy! I have had sore breast so far but no nausea! I have had backache for the last 5days though. Did some heavy lifing then, not knowing yet that I was pregnanct. The backache has been low and into by butt and hip and down the back of my thighs. Has anyone else had backache like this before? I never has this before, except with my miscarriages. The backache with them lasted about a day or two and then bleeding. Just wondered if it means Iam going to miscarry again or if it is just stretching or some pregnancy symptom. If anyone has experienced this could you let me know!!!Today I have had backache in the middle of my back as well!

I hope that you find answers to this. I will move this to the pregnancy forum where you will find more help from others that have been pregnant or who are pregnant.

First of all calm down and relax.

When you did the heavy lifting you didn't know you were pregnant, and that's not your fault!! You can really put your back out for a long time with heavy lifting whether you are pregnant or not, so I'm thinking that this is all it is, plus an anxiety related muscle tension!! Try taking a warm bath to sooth your muscles and your nerves.

It is pretty common to have a backache associate with pregnancy because that's just what hormones do. But for it to be that intense, I'm going to throw it to the lifting, which effects were probably worsened by the pregnancy hormones that deal with your muscles relaxing and your joints....hormones are pretty rough aren't they?

I hope you are taking it easy. No more heavy lifting and plenty of rest....It's pretty amazing that you are pregnant again for the third time even with 2 prior miscarriages in 7 months. I just have one question...how long ago was your last miscarriage? I know you think you are pregnant, but I'm also wondering at the possibility that you might not be since the HCG levels take a little while to go back down after a prior pregnancy.

If you are indeed pregnant, you should see your doctor soon to discuss the reasons why you may have had your miscarriages and if a hormone therapy to keep the baby this time is right for you.
