As our wives go through toward the end of the 2nd trimester, she may start to experience a lot of lower back pain. Doctor says it's the body's way to prepare for the growth of the baby. If I remember correctly, it's caused by the softening of the ligaments (not sure) on her lower back. By this time, she will have pains mostly daily, which is quite bad. It actually pains me to see my wife in it when the pain attacks. We as husbands, should at this time try to help her out as much as we can. I always try to remind her the reason behind it which is of course the baby and to just encourage her that the baby is coming soon since we really can't do much about the pain.
So as she goes through this stage in the pregnancy, we should learn to give her a good massage to help ease the pain because it usually happens at night while she sleeps and so you should be on call for that to help her sleep through the night especially since she may also have a hard time sleeping because the baby inside is awake.
