Whole body aches
Show your support
You are not alone. I am 7 months PP and EBF and feel the same way. It doesn't matter if I'm active or resting, my whole body just hurts. It kinda feels like having muscle aches from a never ending flu.
I'm also 8 weeks PP and I found rubbing shea butter over my body before shower and massaging it before and while in the shower helped a lot with aches and stiffness. Also stretching for around 5mins before you have a hot shower and when you wake up helps a lot.
My calf muscles in the morning feel like I ran a marathon the day before. I am almost 6 months pp and EBF as well.
@Emily exactly, aches and stiffness every single day. thank you for sharing! And good suggestion!
@Fatoumata oh true thanks I’ll have to try those
@Erika YES! I exactly. It is so weird (and terrible).
Yes! I am 6 months PP now and finally feeling better, but I went through an extended period of time where my entire body was aching/lots of back pain and stiffness. I am definitely feeling better but it’s been a long haul. Dr Teals relax & relief Epsom salt does wonders!
