I am having extreme back pain. I find it hard to walk around for a long time, or find a comfortable sleeping position. I haven't gained but like 2 pounds, so I know it isn't from extra weight.
I heard that some women's uteruses are tilted more toward their back. and I was wondering if this could be my problem??
I haven't started showing that much either, and I wondered if that is also due to a tilted uterus???

A tilted uterus should cause no discomfort- Relaxin is a chemical that your body produces to relax your joints to allow the pelvis to open for the baby. Relaxin is produced early on and if the pelvis joints start to relax it will cause back pain. Also- even if you have gained no weight you still change your posture and muscles are forced to stretch in ways they have never been asked to before which may also cause discomfort. Massage and exercise from to OB will help.

Backach can be caused by many things in pregnancy
1-Urinary tract infections
2-Posterior position in late pregnancy
3-pelvic arthropathy
4-And of course Labour
5- The most common in pregnancy is bad posture-- see a physiotherapist

You never said you are pregnant but i gather that you are. I had a lot of back problems when I was pregnant the 1st time but mine was because of pulled muscles and slight kindney infections. Ask your Doctor.
