Pregnancy is not a medical condition, but there are some postural and hormonal changes that come with pregnancy and are part of the normal process. These postural and hormonal changes can cause pain, soreness and tension in many different areas of the body as well as adding to stress levels. The most common areas for pain are in the lower back and also neck and headaches. The pain in the lower back can be from the curve of the low back that increases as the pelvis tips forward with the weight of the belly. This pelvic tilt can also cause upper back issues as well, in the shoulders, neck and head.
