What Causes Back Pain In 39 Week Pregnancy?

Hi, I'm 39 week pregnant and it's been 4 days now that my back hurts constantly, all the tine, only in one spot, like a point, on the right side, but close to center, and affects my right foot when walking and switching positions. No pain at all if lay down or sit. How can I relive it? Anything connected with labor?

Hi,welcome to healthcare magic forum.I understand your query.It is normal during pregnancy as you have finished the full 9 months duration.You are getting back pain because of pressure by growing fetus over all around your pelvic area and also due to stretching of uterus.You can go for labor any time so you should be cautious always.Try to take rest or be in the position which suits you or you feel comfortable.Be in regular consult with your doctor.No need to worry much.It is a problem of just few more days not much.Good Luck.
