Having a baby can be the most exciting and the most fraught experience of a woman’s life.

The transformation the body goes through, from conception to birth, is laden with discomforts, even for the most physically fit.

For women with scoliosis, these discomforts can evolve into acute sources of pain as pregnancy progresses.

Scoliosis is the medical term for an abnormal curvature of the spine and is a common condition usually diagnosed in adolescents.

Nearly 3 million cases of scoliosis are diagnosed in the US each year.

There is a common fear amongst women, that having scoliosis means they will have a complicated pregnancy — some may think that it will prevent them from being pregnant at all — but the good news is, this is not the case.

Most pregnant women with scoliosis will go on to have normal and natural births free of any complications.

It can, however, cause increased symptoms of back pain during pregnancy — especially during the third trimester.
