Knee pain after birth

Ive had this too, bending down is super painful on my knees still. I did have knee pain in pregnancy though
@Laine I expected to have knee pain in pregnancy but nothing, I've lost 90% of my pregnancy weight so didn't struggle to get pain in my knees. Bending down for me is also painful. Fine sat still and walking though 🤷🏼♀️
Not specifically knee pain but yesterday all my joints were aching as well as my ribs and back and it seemed to come out of nowhere...I'm 5.5weeks pp. It's not as bad today but I'm still achy. Hopefully we'll all ache less soon x
Yes I have this, my knees are so sore and I am experiencing everything you have said! I feel like I have arthritis or something and ibuprofen isn’t touching it!
I have experienced exactly this. Had awful PGP during pregnancy (no knee pain) but now, it’s as if I have arthritis in my knees. Getting up off the floor is always a huge task!! 😮💨
@Lucie I literally feel like this too!! I honestly don't understand
@Melanie oh gosh. This sounds exactly like me!! I'm hoping it'll go away but I'm not sure
@Emily I don’t know about you, but I also have really stiff joints in my hands too!
I have been experiencing the same knee pains for the last few weeks, I’m 10 weeks PP now. Anyone find anything that helps?
I’ve had a few aches and pains too and I’m about 3 weeks pp, had awful pelvic girdle pain too. I think it’s probably down to my joints still being a bit loose in the prep the body does for labour and all the hormones etc. I’m just trying to stay active but also not do too much at the same time and taking regular breaks! I’m hopeful it’ll go away in the next few weeks as the body is still recovering! X
