the real question is what type of back pain are you having? is it constant or intermittent? if it comes and goes you may be having contractions and should contact your physician. if it is constant then it most likely is related to nerve impingement related to the pregnancy. exercise is a very good idea. you may want to take a warm bath keeping the water temperature less than 104 degrees preferably around 100. this may be relieving. depending on what the pain is your physician can possibly provide you with ideas on how to better handle the problem. there are different exercises alternative type of therapies and there are safe medications that can be used to help as well.
