What causes backpain and incontinence when you 36 weeks pregnant?

Pressure: It is likely due to the increased pressure of having a baby, but tell your OB and they will be able to put your mind to rest and recommend options.

Incontinence: As pregnancy progresses the back will begin to arch to support the growing abdomen. In addition the baby is taking up so much space and the growing uterus is pressing on the bladder adding to incontinence
