It was instant relief. Obviously things still hurt down there after pushing baby out but the pelvic pain I’d been dealing with for months just disappeared.

Pretty instant, had pain everywhere else, but that specific PGP was gone

Immediately!!

If you breastfeed, sometimes the pain can last longer. Personally I did physical therapy while i was still pregnant and it cleared up before I even gave birth. So if it doesnt clear up after, get PT.

Immediately! It was like a miracle, suddenly I could move around without pain haha

about 6 months, but those 6 months were no where near as bad as when i was pregnant

Instantly after birth x

@Jo how long did you have pgp during pregnancy

@Katie how long did you have pgp during pregnancy

@Fahima how long did you have pgp during pregnancy

@Medina how long did you have pgp during pregnancy

At 8 weeks I developed sciatica (lasted all pregnancy) and then at around 5 months the PGP started. The only way for Pgp to get better is through resting, sitting in one place. I couldn’t walk much at all and I couldn’t cook or wash dishes at the sink cause of how bad my pgp was. I got referred for physio at around 32 weeks or something.

Ugh mine lasted like 2 weeks more after birth. I had PGP the last two months of pregnancy soo badly no fun.

Instantly hips were still slightly sore afterwards like a dull ache probably just the relief but it only lasted a day or two!
