Lower back pain

My eldest turned 3 yesterday and we threw him a birthday party. I was on my feet all day and think I might have overdone it. Today I’ve been crippled by back pain to the point where I couldn’t walk. I’ve taken paracetamol after checking with my midwife and hope it improves soon. Has anyone else had lower back pain this bad and what did you do to relieve it? I’m currently lying on my side (husband’s orders) but I’m desperate to at least sit up - but I don’t want to do anything that will make it worse.

A hot bath and some magnesium spray helped me when I over did it!

When you sit up, do put your feet up as well.
It will get better. Sending you hugs 🤗🤗

Bleeding postpartum

I’m 6 weeks postpartum and am still bleeding. The bleeding stopped around week 3 then came back super strong (bleeding through night pads and clothes) on week 4, I was even passing clots as large/thick as a pinky finger. Went to the ER and the ultrasound showed my uterus is clear and looks fine. Bleeding decreased and now on week 6 came heavy again. Did anyone experience the same thing?

Insomnia

Hey guys just want to see if anyone else is struggling with really bad insomnia? It’s 8.15am and I still haven’t slept! Usually it’s between 4-5am I will doze off but the past couple of days it hasn’t been until 6/8!! It’s driving me crazy 🥹🥹

Different symptoms/gender related

This is my second pregnancy and i have very different symptoms this time. I mainly just feel tired and occasionally feel sick. With my daughter i was SO sick for like 6 weeks straight. Wondering if this can be gender related?

Has anyone had really different symptoms for each pregnancy and had different genders?
