AB  - Background Back pain is a common presenting complaint during pregnancy and it is 
      often being considered as part of the pregnancy process. The purpose of the study 
      is to investigate the prevalence of back pain in pregnancy, risk factors and its 
      impact on the quality of life in pregnant women. Materials and methods Three 
      hundred and fifty-eight pregnant women who attended the antenatal clinic in 
      Universiti Kebangsaan Malaysia (UKM) Medical Centre were recruited in this 
      cross-sectional study from October 2011 until April 2012. The back pain was 
      further classified into lumbar pain and posterior pelvic pain. The severity of 
      back pain was assessed using visual analoque scale (VAS) and the functional 
      limitation was assessed using the Oswestry Disability Questionnaire (ODQ). Result 
      The prevalence of back pain in pregnancy was 84.6%. Occupation and previous 
      history of back pain were associated with back pain in pregnancy. In terms of 
      functional limitation disability, total ODQ score was statistically significant 
      correlate with severity of pain (VAS score). Personal care, sitting, standing, 
      sex life and social life were significantly affected. Conclusion The risk factors 
      for back pain in pregnancy were type of occupation and history of back pain. The 
      higher VAS score, the more ODQ will be affected. Personal care, sitting, 
      standing, sex life and social life were significantly affected.
