I am 16 weeks pregnant with twins. I've been experiencing lower back pain for a while, but it seems to be getting worse as the weeks go on. I have a 16 week appointment tomorrow, so I will discuss it with my midwife. The pain is really getting me down today. Could it be SPD?
I am disabled and I have some chronic pain conditions. I am used to being in pain, so I'm not sure why I am finding this so difficult to manage. I am not able to take some of my usual pain medication during my pregnancy, and the meds I can take need to be used sparingly. The pain is making me feel so miserable.
I can do some gentle stretches, but I'm not able to exercise due to my disability. I am a wheelchair user.
