Hi Ladies,

I probably sound like a whinger, but I am going to ask anyway!

I only gave birth to my daughter a week ago, but since then I have had a very very sore tailbone, to the point that I cant even sit down without being in a huge amount of pain. Just makes it hard to sit and breastfeed her, or sit in the car or sit anywhere really. I spent some of my labour trying to move around a bit but by the time I had to push, i was on my back because she got stuck so an ob had to come in and turn her. Pushing stage lasted for 2 hours 15 mins because of this.

I saw a physio while I was in hospital and she showed me some exercises I could do to try to help it heal... I also got a special bum pillow made out of a block of foam which helps a bit but not that much.

just wondering if anyone else had this and how long did it take before you could actually sit down normally?

it just doesnt really feel like its getting any better.
