5 Weeks Pregnant With Lower Back Pain And Spotting Posted: 08-24-03 21:50pm
I am 5 weeks pregnant (40 yrs old)and have
been having mild lower back pain, I also
have been constipated and thought that
might have something to do with the lower
back pain, after trying to go to the
restroom this morning (with some
straining) I noticed some spotting, not
enought for a pad but definately blood and
it has continued all day. Needless to
say, I am worried sick. Has anyone had
this happen before?

You might want to notify your doctor and
let them no...You could be trying to
miscarriage. Back pain is a sign with
blood. Just to be safe I would check.
Good luck...

Dear stacey,
you need to make an appointment to see
your doctor immediately, and explain you
need to see them right away as you suspect
a miscarriage. If you can't get an
appointment, go to the hospital. I
miscarried 3 months ago and had spotting,
abdomen pain and lower back pain. The
back pain is definately something to worry
about. If you are miscarrying, the
bleeding will get very heavy, like a
period on a bad day, it will start to get
clotty to, so you need to watch out for
all this. But please don't ignore it.
Take care,

What suzy said is very true. You never
want to ignore bleeding especially when
accompanied by back pain. But bleeding
doesn't always mean miscarriage. Don't
freak out until you know. But it is
important to get into the Dr.
