Postpartum pelvic girdle pain
Anyone experiencing PGP post birth? I didn’t really have it during pregnancy but about a week after birth I’ve had pain in my right hip and very lower back that’s making it difficult to walk. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced similar and how long it took to resolve as feeling a bit hopeless not being able to go out for walks/get fresh air.

I had it with my 2nd baby, I started having sports massage and acupuncture and also going to yoga classes which really helped! X
Thanks both, that’s really helpful to know. I’ve started seeing an osteopath now so hopeful it will resolve in the next few weeks 🙏🏼

I feel you! I had awful PGP from 24 weeks and it’s still here although slowly getting better. I still can’t really walk properly though and day to day is still tricky. I’d definitely see if you can get a referral to a pelvic floor physio or failing that get yourself to an osteopath - I saw an osteopath weekly during my pregnancy and it really helped with the pain management x
