Congratulations Pip! Enjoy everything, I’d say

I wouldn’t dwell on it too much. Every pregnancy is different, and back pain is quite common during pregnancy. Try to enjoy it.

Hey Pip, 2016, could it be that the back pain back then was just due to the baby kicking, or was it really the back pain that caused you to have contractions? What did the gynecologist say?

I did have some back pain, but not too severe, and I was still working in a preschool class, picking up toddlers every day, bending down to put on coats, etc. But I think that was more due to standing for long periods or bending than the pregnancy itself—maybe a combination of both. So back pain, then Whether your job affects back pain is possible. Just try to sit often, and bring it up with your boss and let them know what happened last time. Talk it over together.

    No, the back pain was unfortunately part of the MK..
    And I'm my own boss so my employer knows all about it
    I try to sit a lot in between, it's coming in waves now; last time I had one day of severe back pain and then bleeding..
    So exciting, dear, these times..

    Ah, I didn't know that That's handy, you choose your own hours I think it's good to sit down occasionally and keep your feet up Let your husband massage you and spoil you. Cherry pickles on your back or a warm bath in the evening.

    I hope you have a clingy baby this time and that everything goes well Yes, it's exciting but stay positive

    Don't think so. Or maybe you're just sensitive to it, that could be too.

    I'm a hairdresser myself and never had any issues.
    And when my colleagues were pregnant, I never heard anything about it either.

    But every pregnancy is different.

    I don't know if your back pain is due to your job. Maybe because you stand a lot? I work sitting at the reception, so I sit for a long time and got quite bad back pain from that during my previous pregnancies. Luckily, it's not too bad this time. But a miscarriage is usually caused by something being wrong from the very beginning, during development. Congratulations on your pregnancy And if you want, mention your back issues to your midwife. It could be because you stand for long periods? Greetings, Madelene
