Pressure and pain in bottom whilst pregnant?

These are pretty normal pregnancy symptoms, so don't be afraid! Your uterus is getting heavier and is pressing against your colon which can make you feel like you have to go all the time. It is also normal for you to have abnormal stools during pregnancy. You don't need to take anything, just make sure you are eating right and drinking plenty of water. If you increase your intake of water, you may even notice that your back pain eases up a bit.
