Being pregnant changes your posture and can cause lower back pain among other things. Also picking up and carrying children can also cause back pain.

Oh and getting older can do this too.

I had an epidural with my first and ever since have had horrific lower back pain and debilitating headaches. My situation was slightly different as they popped my spiral fluid is only way I know how to describe it on one of the attempts.
The best thing I find is a heat pack gives a tiny bit of relief

Since the birth of my 2nd child I have had horrible lower back pain. Some days it's so painful that I struggle to go from sitting to standing. I'm going to chiro soon to hopefully get it sorted. I also have crazy hectic periods which I've never had before.
