Back pain during pregnancy is a common complaint — and it's no wonder. You're gaining weight, you're walking in a new way, and your hormones are relaxing the muscles and ligaments throughout your body. But you don't have to grin and bear it. Often, you can treat — or prevent — back pain during pregnancy. Consider seven ways to give pregnancy back pain the boot.
 Practice good posture
As your baby grows, your center of gravity shifts forward. To avoid falling forward, you may compensate by leaning back — which can strain the muscles in your lower back and contribute to back pain during pregnancy. Enter the principles of good posture:
  • Stand up straight and tall.
  • Hold your chest high.
  • Keep your shoulders back and relaxed.
  • Don't lock your knees.
When you stand, use a comfortably wide stance for the best support. If you must stand for long periods of time, rest one foot on a low step stool — and take time for frequent breaks.
Good posture also means sitting with care. Choose a chair that supports your back, or place a small pillow behind your lower back. Keep your upper back and neck comfortably straight. Consider propping your feet on a low stool.
 Get the right gear
Wear low-heeled shoes with good arch support. Wear maternity pants with a low, supportive waistband. You might also consider wearing a maternity support belt. Although research on the effectiveness of maternity support belts is limited, some women find the additional support helpful.

 Lift properly

When lifting a small object, squat down and lift with your legs. Don't bend at the waist or lift with your back. It's also important to know your limits. Ask for help if you need it.

 Sleep on your side

Sleep on your side, not your back. Keep one or both knees bent. It might also help to place one pillow between your knees and another under your abdomen, or use a full-length body pillow.
