HI, thanks for using healthcare magic
The yellow discharge is likely a vaginal yeast infection. These are common in pregnancy.
It can be treated with the use of topical creams/ovules , which would be safe for you to use.
There are different options and your doctor can suggest one for you. Eg canesten, monistat etc
Back pain may be related to the pressure of your abdomen on your back . If it worsens then you can go to your doctor for assessment.
I hope this helps
