hi i suffer from pain in my lower back that spreaRAB to my hips this is worse when i 1st get out of bed or when ive been sitting. Sometimes i get a cramp like feeling that goes round to my front. my daugter is disabled so i do alot of lifting. Im defo not pregnant and this is not at a certain time of the month. Im worried that my doctor is just fobbing me off and saying its with lifting my daugter
 
Whitney, your symptoms are the same I had when it turned out to be arthritis in the sacroiliac joints. It's always worse in the mornings, starts in your back and moves to your hips and around to the front, and feels like cramps. It's also hard to straighten up if you've been sitting for a long time.

Your doctor is correct, lifting is making it worse, or staying in a position where you're partially bent over for any period of time. I always got a flareup when I tried to do any sewing that had me bent over a table.

Suggest to your doctor that perhaps that might be the cause. Anti-inflammatory drugs such as Celebrex can be very effective. I also found heat to be a big help, and would often live on a heating pad set to low.

I hope this helps.
