Hello! I'm 38 weeks pregnant, and managed to strain my back twice yesterday, both times by bending down to fetch something. Stupid I know! Does anyone have any advice please?

Hot water bottle on your back. Rest quite a bit today if you can but also a little bit of gentle walking just so you dont get stiff may help.
