My lower back has just been killing me. It's like a dull, constant pain. Then my hips and pelvis are just awful when I walk, sit, or try to sleep. My leg hurts because of a leg cramp I got while I was sleeping(I was screaming when I got it xD).
Now a lovely new pain. I was laying half on my back and half on my side when I went to roll over completely on my side when my ribs cried out in pain. Just right under my breast, actually. I don't know if it's from Aaron kicking me because I never feel any movement that high up.
But the pain that gets me is my lower back pain. My doctor says it's nothing to worry about but it just hurts. Lastnight I took two Tylenol and they didn't do a thing, which is a first for me.
Should I be worried?

From personal experience I would say don't worry. I have constant lower back pain that sometimes gets so bad that I can't do anything but sit and cry. Tylenol doesn't help me either. For a quick fix, stick a heating pad against your back for a few minutes (I'd go 10-15), which can help...or if your insurance covers it, go pop into a chiropractor's office (MAKE SURE THEY ARE CERTIFIED TO WORK WITH PREGNANT WOMEN) and get a little pop action. I know that my monthly visits to my chiro always leavev me feeling a million times better. Another good fix is getting a really good, deep tissue massage (again from someone who is certfied).....and think of it this way: It'll be over soon. biggrin Hope this helps.

Mmm, a nice massage sounds delicious. When Mike tries to massage my back he gets the baby squirming, which is annoying but cute. I'll have to look into my insurence but I'm sure they'll cover it, they're the county xP I have my appointment on Monday so I'll see if he can reccomend someone ^_^ Thankuu!

So now I have cramps that come and go around every half hour or so. They're not ungodly painful but they do hurt. More than anything, they're uncomfortable.
I had these about two days ago but I hadn't drank alot of liquids so I figured I was dehydrated. I called my clinic anyway and the on-call doctor said they were just Braxton-Hicks contractions.
I didn't feel them at all yesterday really but now, within the past few hours, they're back.
My back hurts from about mid-back on down to my butt.
I'm sure they're just the practice contractions and I'm being over paranoid and anxious(I just want to see my little boy ^^)but all the same, still worried.
I hate calling my clinic because they never seem to get my name right in the first five minutes and then it takes awhile for the doctor to call me back after hours.
If nothing big happens, should I just hold out till my Monday appointment?

Ack, NO!
Lower back pain, especially very uncomfortable pain that doesn't go away when you change positions, is a sign of labor.
I'd go to the ER if they don't call you back soon. Seriously.

Eep, I guess I will give them a call. My only ride to anyplace just left with my Mom and Step Dad because he couldn't breathe, they're going to the ER xD

Lower back is from your tailbone to a ew inches below your ribs.
neutral Contractions that are painful are real, not Braxton-Hicks. With back pain as well, that's very bad.

XD It's awesome lol I haven't giggled like that in a while =D
The back pain went away but I'm defiantly keeping track of it. The amount that the baby moves, it's hard to tell when it's pain and when he's causing it >.< Lil brat.

Souxie I hope everythings gotten better for you ^_^ Thankyou^^ @priceless_babe: I know how you feel but it goes so fast you won't even notice! I can't believe it's been this long and now, next week, he's full term at 38 weeks! I just can't believe how time has flown. But now it feels like it's slowed down, lol. I suppose it's because I'm so anxious to have my little baby^__^ Congrats on becoming pregnant and enjoy it, even the crappy parts, because it really is wonderful, all the aches and pains included!!
