Left side back pain 13 weeks pregnant

I’m currently 13 weeks pregnant and am suffering from a sharp back pain on my left side. It is pretty constant and doesn’t seem to go away when moving/going to the loo etc. I had a scan a week ago and all was okay with the baby but since then have had this back pain and a kind of ‘fuller’ feeling in my tummy. Just wondering if this is normal and if anyone is experiencing it? I had a miscarriage earlier in the year so am extra anxious about everything! I hate the thought of wasting doctors times calling and asking questions so thought I would ask for advice on here first. Thanks so much

Hi,
I'm 9 weeks pregnant (for the first time) and also experiencing lower back pain, was right at the base of my spine now slightly to the right. I've googled it and it sounds like it's common to have some back pain in early stages but I'm planning to call the midwife in the morning to talk about it. Have you found anything further out? Also please don't worry about wasting doctors time if you are worried about something! You are allowed to ask questions as you are pregnant and it's totally understandable you're feeling anxious. Do you have a local midwife number you can call?

Please get it checked out. Honestly don’t worry about wasting doctors time, better to be safe than sorry. Good luck

I'm experiencing this now at the same gestation. Was everything okay in the end? X
