Pelvic pain after birth
Hey guys! I gave birth around 5 days ago and I’ve been experiencing really bad pelvic pain still. Like turning over in bed is extremely painful, sometimes even walking is painful, my pubic bone itself hurts, and I hear it click sometimes.
My tailbone is also a little painful and it hurts to sit down, as if my backside gets like numb very quick.
Has anyone else experienced this, if so, did anything help?

I had the exact same, used to have the clicking every time I rolled over in bed and my pelvis would be in agony after I spent a lot of time on my feet. It probably lasted for a couple of months post partum. I went to my GP but they basically did nothing and said it’s a normal part of being post partum and sent me for physio (I had complained about a bad back and hips at the same time). Definitely go to your GP though!
The sore bum was normal for me and I also had bad hip pain throughout pregnancy in the end which was normal for me too and did eventually go! You gave like a 5day health visitor appointment or midwife if I remember right mention it there! Completely get how painful it can be but your body is still recovering massively, so it may take some time xxx
