Hey Ladies,

It' s been long since I started a new thread, so I thought, well, let' s do it :)

Have developed this nagging back pain, almost every night, but strikes almost anywhere or anytime. Get some relief when I use (smile) my hubby to help relieve some pain by virtue of a back rub, but it' s just momentary relief.

Guess, sitting in office for 7-8 hours is taking a toll although I make it a point to get up and have a short walk every (half) hour or so.

as if this wasn' t enough, have sudden stomach cramps as well, especially after eating. No idea, although the doc says it is alright, and prescribed small frequent meals instead of few heavy meals.

Any thoughts or suggestions?

Enjoy the experience,

I do have bit of backpain and pains in my legs also ... but it has been managable so far... i had terrible leg cramps last time, but thankfully they have not hit me yet this time ...! I think those are the most painful , they used to strike me every night last time ...!

I also felt some stomach cramp liek feeling, I ate somehting and it went away , so maybe i was just hungry ...weird eh ?? :-) ...

take care and do keep posting ...

I am escaping back pain so far...but stomach pain was so much for me and i kind of went into a complete non-mirchi diet. Drink coconut water, buttermilk (with hing and methi powder), may be ginger ale...all this helped me a lot. Now that my mom is not there, i ate some mirchi food and the pain has come back in full swing..:-((

Eat as bland as possible!! Hope this will help.

Kirti replied. I have started getting them too. Especially on the right side of my back, which I used to get earlier because of using mouse. So have removed mouse from laptop and use left hand for mouse from the mousepad.
Abt cramps I realised I get them when I sleep on my back (unintentionally of-course), once it starts hurting the moment I change positions and sleep on the side, the pain reduces in abt 10 mins. I have also suddenly gained a lot of weight (3.5kgs in a month), so I think that is adding to the pressure on my back. Got a nice scolding from the doc yesterday. :(. Have to control my weight now, so planning to join pregnancy exercise classes which the clinic offers on Wednesdays.
