Postpartum PGP

I had physio for pgp whilst pregnant, when she discharged me she said after pregnancy give it 6-8 weeks and if it hadn’t gone to referral myself back to physio. So I would suggest calling your gp and asking them for a referral. But yes having your newborn strapped to you for 2 hours a day will be putting a lot of pressure on your pelvis. I’d avoid doing it until the pain has gone and afterwards wearing a band for support x

I thought as much just not really an option for me to stop baby wearing/walking though so it’s tricky 🤦🏻‍♀️ did she give you any particular exercises you could share? X

I have the same and unsure what to do too x

Not postpartum yet but PGP is kicking my butt right now. Actually on the way to an orthopedic appt to figure out what to do. Open to any exercises yall can find as well

please share what they say x

I still have it at 8 months pp. Honestly it feels like it's getting worse. I've seen a physio and will have a follow up soon. I didn't even know it was a thing to have it post partum

my physio suggested based off where I had the pain, I also had an exercise ball so two of them were using that (pelvic tilts and squats against the wall) then there was pelvic tilts against the wall and two others but I can’t remember them sorry!
I found yoga really helped and she recommended aquanatal I just never got round to trying it. I would suggest going for an appointment, only as when I googled a lot of them to help the were laying exercises and they actually hurt me more than helped x

thank you that’s really helpful x

the NP at my ortho appt recommended physical therapy and I’ll be getting yoga ball this weekend

I had the same with my second, it was awful. I went to the drs and had some bloods but was all ok. I think it went around 6months post partum but I also went back to the gym around this time so I think working on my strength definitely helped.
