Pelvic pain

Is anyone else who had a vaginal delivery still experiencing some pelvic pain? The past couple of weeks I've noticed sometimes when I'm crossing my legs or if I move a certain way I get this pain across my pelvis like my pelvic bone is hurting or a very deep painful bruise feeling. My husband and I have also attempted sex a few times and I've found it so painful we haven't been able to continue. Is anyone else experiencing similar? I'm going to call the GP tomorrow but wondering if this is at all common and what others have done to help resolve

Even I am having terrible pelvic pain. Spoke to my GP and she referred me to physio.

Hi I had a c section but really bad pelvic girdle pain in pregnancy that has persisted and sounds like what you describe. I've seen a physio and she recommended some exercises to help strengthen the pelvis that you can probably find online while you wait to see your GP. A few weeks in and it is getting better.

She also told me to stop crossing my legs and I was sat a lot breastfeeding with my legs up on the sofa and both knees bent to one side (if that makes sense!) so my pelvis was always tilted. Stopping these positions has helped a lot!

Try and see a chiropractor to check your pelvis alignment
