Tummy muscle separation and lifting a toddler....
I have pain in the top of my tummy where it feels like I have done a million sit ups, but it must be from muscle separation that I had with Iz that never got better and now with being pg again and lifting her it is getting worse. :( I really don't want to make it alot worse so am wondering if there is anything I can do to avoid more damage throughout this pregnancy. I have heard of people who have had to have surgery which I really don't want.
I am already trying to roll to my side and get up sideways rather than using my tummy to get up out of bed, hard habit to remember though, especially as I don't have a big tummy yet, but I'm not sure how I can get out of it with picking up my girl, especially as I do get bigger and she will still need cuddles and picking up?
Any ideas/suggestions!??????
