What causes back pain in pregnancy?
Backpain is a very common complaint during pregnancy. It is estimated that80% of all pregnant women suffer from it to some extent. It is causedby a variety of factors, the major one being, of course, the extraweight which must be carried around during that time. There is also atendency for existing injuries or history of back pain to resurface.
When does it start?
Backachein pregnancy can start as early as the first three months when theligaments, which help to support the spine, begin to relax. Thisrelaxation process is triggered by the changing hormonal levels ofpregnancy and prepares the body for the developing fetus. It usuallyresults in mild back pain, which is relieved by gentle exercise andplenty of rest.
By the end of the first trimester of pregnancy,the relaxation of the ligaments around the spine continues. During thisperiod, backache is also caused by pressure from the growing baby andexaggerated curvature of the mother’s spine.
In the last trimester, persistent backache may be an indication of the onset of labor.
Does it disappear after delivery?
Forthe vast majority of women, backache associated with pregnancy willdisappear after delivery. However, in some cases it may take a whilefor the pain to disappear completely depending on whether the deliverywas normal or cesarean.
