Hi,
Thanks for posting in HCM.
I understand your concern.
Experiencing pain in the back during later phases of pregnancy is a normal phenomenon. You can do the following to overcome it.
Kindly apply ice packs on the back thrice daily to get relieved from pain. You can also apply analgesic creams locally as a thin layer thrice daily. Practice some of the back exercises recommended during pregnancy. Supplement calcium and calcium rich foods regularly.
Eat healthy food and drink good quantity of water. Always sleep on lateral position and not on your back.
Hope the information provided would be helpful.
All the best.
