Back muscle spasm in pregnancy - anybody experienced this?

[becca3210]

Hello. I am 34 weeks pregnant and have been having pain on one side of my back just under the shoulder blades. I went to an osteopath who diagnosed a muscle spasm and have had two treatment sessions. Sadly this has been going on for a few weeks now and still not any better. Particularly sore when I am sat down and muscle is constricted. Don't mind going back again if it is going to help but slightly concerned about the money I am spending considering no improvement. I am doing the yoga stretches she suggested. Has anybody had anything similar and found relief?

I'm 24 weeks pregnant and experienced the exact same , it started with my back and pubic pain then went into the right side of my back where I imagine my rib cage is, I went to the Drs and they referred me to physio where they told me I had an uneven pelvis which was causing it all and gave me some exercises. As for pain relief I just use a hot water bottle (not too hot) and try to sleep when it gets too bad it might be worth going back to your gp x

Thanks @reanne01 will try a hot water bottle and going back to the GP. Finding it so frustrating being in pain every time I am sat down!
