Can pregnancy cause back problems?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Yes: Pregnancy is well known to increase back problems it may be as simple as more strain on the low back because of the increased weigh and because of the change in posture. Many of the ligaments around the uterus are attached to the anterior lumbar spine thus putting additional stress on it. There are some women who develop herniated discs with radiating pain down the leg(s) but this is unusual.
