HI
Well come to HCM
In first trimester back pain is very less likely, the reason may not be due to pregnancy but this could be muscular pain, if the ante natal findings are okay then this is nothing to worry, you can manage this pain with any local analgesic cream, try to maintain good posture, you can even consult gynecologist for further instruction just for precaution looking to your history of miscarriage, hope this information helps, take care.
