Tips to prevent back ache during pregnancy
Improper sitting positions make you an easy target for back pain, especially during pregnancy. Be sure to sit with your back straight and well supported.

A firm mattress helps relieve back pain. Place a pillow under your knees to cut the pressure on your back. Lying on your side with a pillow between your knees also reduces the pressure.
While picking up something from the floor, bend your knees first and keep your back straight. Always lift with your legs, never your back, keeping the object close to your body at all times.
Pregnancy takes a toll on your back. Try not to stand for long periods of time. If you have to, keep one foot up on a stool with your knee bent in order to prevent straining your lower back.
