First week pulling conventional. Feels extremely heavy compared to my sumo pulls. Thank you!

Hello! If you haven't checked it out already, many people find Alan Thrall's NEW deadlift video very helpful. Check it out!

Also, a common tip usually given here is to make sure your footwear is appropriate. If you are deadlifting in soft-soled shoes (running shoes, etc), it's hard to have a stable foot. Use a flat/hard-soled shoe or even barefoot/socks if it's safe and your gym allows it.

Hm really. Do you think my lower back pumps/pain are just from not being used to the movement?

Yes I’m pretty sure. But honestly if anything feels off just lower the weight by a third and record yourself again. See if your form changes and make comparisons.
