  Will lower back pain cause premature birth at seven months of pregnancy

  In general medicine, it is believed that a pregnancy that terminates between 28 and 37 weeks is called premature birth. Many pregnant women experience lower back pain after seven months of pregnancy due to the continuous enlargement of the fetus and the increasing amount of amniotic fluid, which increases the burden on the front of the lumbar spine. When the pregnant mother stands up, the lower back muscles must be contracted forcefully to maintain the balance of the mother's body, causing the pelvis to tilt forward and form a unique posture of supporting the waist. Due to the continuous contraction of the lower back muscles, sufficient relaxation and rest cannot be obtained. Over time, fatigue can cause lower back pain. If the symptoms of lower back pain are not particularly severe, there is generally no need to worry about premature birth of the baby. However, it is important to always pay attention to the fetal movement of the baby, undergo timely prenatal check ups, and timely understand the condition of the baby in the uterus in order to avoid premature birth of the baby.

  There are several reasons for premature birth, including the following

  1. Infection of chorionic and amniotic membranes: Infection of the cervix and vagina may lead to premature rupture of membranes, which in turn can cause premature birth.

  2. Twin or multiple pregnancies: This condition usually results in polyhydramnios, which can increase intrauterine pressure and cause premature birth.

  3. Abnormalities in the reproductive organs of pregnant mothers, such as uterine fibroids and cervical looseness, may cause premature birth.

  From the above description, we can clearly understand that it is normal for many pregnant women to experience lower back pain after seven months of pregnancy, and there is no need to worry excessively. If lower back pain occurs, appropriate rest or simple exercise can be done to alleviate the symptoms, while maintaining a good mood during pregnancy, which is more conducive to the healthy growth of the baby. At the same time, regular prenatal checkups should be done to timely understand the condition of the fetus in the uterus.
