Try not to sleep flat on your back too much, as the weight of the baby flattens out your spine - or so I was told by a physio. If you're a back sleeper, try putting a pillow under your knees, apparently this helps keep a bit of a curve in your spine. And I found a wheat bag really good as well. ]]> Wed, 09 Jun 2010 14:59:11 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1057965&title=sore-back#1057965 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1057693&title=sore-back#1057693 Author: Lou1972

I've had alot of problems with my back and pelvis since early pregnancy.Have been seeing an osteopath and have noticed such a big difference.
Had the same problems in my last pregnancy and was referered to the physio and didnt find it really helped at all.]]> Wed, 09 Jun 2010 11:23:31 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1057693&title=sore-back#1057693 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1057551&title=sore-back#1057551 Author: High9

You could try an osteopath too - I had really bad back pain from very early on and found that the osteopath improved things (although the pain never disappeared )]]> Tue, 08 Jun 2010 22:16:47 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1057392&title=sore-back#1057392 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1056564&title=sore-back#1056564 Author: tiptoes

If it doesn't improve talk to your midwife about referring you to the physio. I got referred to the hospital physio and it was free. My back pain started at about 10 weeks, supposedly something to do with the hormones.]]> Tue, 08 Jun 2010 14:27:57 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1056564&title=sore-back#1056564 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1055401&title=sore-back#1055401 Author: rachaels

The wheat bag is my best friend

And water walking has really helped me to stretch the back muscles in a safe way, my back always feels much better after a swim!]]> Mon, 07 Jun 2010 11:17:05 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1055401&title=sore-back#1055401 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1055305&title=sore-back#1055305 Author: kebakat

I don't know, but you could ring one and ask as they would know.

I found a wheat bag really good for sore backs through out my pregnancy. I let it cool a bit when it came out of the microwave so it wasn't hot-hot iygwim, but more warm/hot and the mw said it was safe to use.

Or you could try soaking in a warm bath.]]> Mon, 07 Jun 2010 08:54:44 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1055278&title=sore-back#1055278 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1055277&title=sore-back#1055277 Author: amme_eilyk

I seem to be getting a really sore lower back in the middle of the night. I dont understand how to fix it. I am only 8 weeks along, but it really is ruining my sleep. Any ideas?]]> Sun, 06 Jun 2010 08:14:00 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=33884&PID=1054492&title=sore-back#1054492
