15w5d and lower back pain/thigh pain - should I worry?

Hi all

I'm having dull ache in my back for the past couple of days on and off, and occasionally have mild pains down my legs like period pains.

The backache seems to ease every now and then, and hasn't been too intense or worrying. I've been treating a mild case of thrush with some Canesten cream, so I wondered if perhaps I don't have thrush but a UTI? It doesn't burn when I wee or anything but I did get a few bladder infections during my last pregnancy so I might be quite prone to them.

Please reassure me that there is nothing too much to worry about. I had a scan at 14w4d and it was all good. I've also been feeling the quickening sensations of the bubbles popping so I know that baby is moving a bit too (although I haven't felt this as much for the past couple of days).

I'm probably worried more than I should be... I'm waiting for a callback from the midwifery team so someone should be calling me quite soon hopefully.

I really really don't want anything bad to happen - this pregnancy is my light in the dark of very bad times during 2017 and I couldn't cope if something awful happened. Sad

I am 17+4 I've been getting pains where my thigh joins my body on and off for weeks. Google suggests round ligament pain / ligaments loosening off etc.

Do not panic, I am sure all is fine. I think it sound quite normal. I'm sure the midwife will reassure you!
