Is Backpain On Pregnancy Normal ?

I m 36 wks 3d on my 2nd pregnancy. I have shooting back pain all the way up to my shoulder blades from my lower back. My first pregnancy I was sectioned at 34 due to complications so I never got this far. I also have 2 herniated discs, I ve tried everything but I can t get comfortable and my pelvic area hurts a lot too. Is this normal at this stage of pregnancy?

its because of the herniated disc predisposition. secondly the center of gravity shifts forward so there is a constant heaviness at the lower back in pregnacy at 36 week . just follow bed rest and hot water fomentation as of ten as possible for the back pain . if not tolerable can have ..tab paracetamol 500mg sos.
