A member asked:
I am 5 months pregnant and i have a back problem what advice can you give me, i can't even sleep with my other side?

Back pain : It is not unusual to have a back pain while pregnant. Carrying baby put increased pressure on lower back. Walking and gentle core exercises may help. Check with your OB before taking any medications.
