Easily injured

Anybody else get hurt a lot more often and easier since having a baby? From random joint pain to a concussion to a possible rotator cuff tear. It makes me feel so helpless that I can’t do certain things and help with our little one with everything I keep experiencing.

Yes! This is a side effect of all the hormones, namely relaxin in the body. Until your hormones return to normal levels, unfortunately you are more easily hurt/injured. This lasts for as long as you’re breastfeeding also! I’ve been pregnant and/or breastfeeding solidly since April 2021, so it’s constant 😅
