Good posture

In the second and third trimesters, your baby's growth may add pressure to your uterus and pelvis. Your elevated estrogen levels also cause your ligaments to loosen. This can lead to cramps and back pain. To keep back pain to a minimum, notice the ways you sit, stand, and move, and see if there are ways to lessen the burden on your back.
