Diclofenic/Voltraol muscle relaxents, they are good once you give them a chance to get in your system. Keep moving every 25 minutes, and strengthen your core muscles, for your back it's the tummy ones

As much as I am sure you enjoy being atop the laptop, I would say it might be easier typing if you put the laptop in front of you instead of under you. And this just might relieve a little back pain. Not that I want to upset a preggo mind you. Just a friendly suggestion.

Well I get the odd back pain, but usually I just take a quick walk and a few stretches and that makes me feel better.

Hope you feel better soon though whatever you decide to do!!
