Pregnancy-related back pain affects nearly half of expectant mothers, often taking a toll on daily routines, exercise, and adding mental strain. This blog shares my personal experience as a Pelvic Floor Physical Therapist navigating unexpected back pain during my first pregnancy and the surprising relief I found through a simple, underused tool: the pregnancy ball. I explain the common causes of pregnancy back pain and outline how a pregnancy ball can support gentle joint mobility, muscle activation, and pain reduction. I provide practical guidance on using a pregnancy ball, key exercises to try, tips for safety and comfort, and considerations when choosing the right ball. This blog aims to empower pregnant women with evidence-informed strategies to calm back pain and feel more comfortable throughout pregnancy.
