Very early pregnancy bad back ache

Hi,

I just found out I was pregnant a few days ago (first time ever pregnant and surprised/delighted/anxious!) Not sure exactly how many DPO I am but around 14/15. I’ve had back ache in the middle of my waist every evening for the 4 nights. It is so uncomfortable I can’t get comfy and has been ruining my evenings. Nothing like PMS back pain. The only thing that helps is lying flat in bed and luckily enough, I’ve been tired enough to fall asleep through it. When I wake up in the morning it’s gone. I’m very aware back ache is common…but this is much more debilitating than I would have thought when I’m so so early. Ahhhhh. Did anyone have similar and it went away rapidly? Thanks!

Hi OP.

Not as early as you, but I had the most immense back ache during week 5-7.

It was excruciating but lasted all of a couple of mins each time. It would literally make me sweat and panic! Midwife told me it was normal when I finally had my first appointment at week 10.

I'm now nearly 24 weeks and baby girl is growing well inside me.

Every pregnancy is different and I would recommend speaking to your early pregnancy unit if it gets prolonged or you see any blood x

I’m had this from the very start, that’s what made me test to think I was pregnant and yep correct lol I’m now 7 weeks and it’s eased off a little but it’s still there, more so at night sat on the sofa.

I need an advice or opinions.
I'm more than aware that is very early, however...
Ovulation was on the 5th of Jan, unprotected sex was on the 4th of Jan. I know when I ovulate as I have ovulation cramps, they usually last a day- day and a half and then nothing until the day before period starts.

I know I'm only 3DPO however, cramps are still here, I have pelvic pain that feels like stretching that goes to the top of the groins, I have lower back pain, breast started being tender today, basically I feel like my period will start even though it's not due for the next 12 days.
I also have white- yellowish discharge.

Those cramps and strange, stretchy feeling is constantly here. I also have runny nose and my throat feels prickly even though I don't have a cold. I'm also sweaty even though I never sweat 🤷‍♀️

The question is- am I going nuts or these could be early pregnancy symptoms???

This would be my third pregnancy,last one was 11 years ago.

Thank you!!

I had it SO badly in my first pregnancy
(none in my 2nd)

what helped was keeping mobile, baby yoga and physiotherapy/osteo
