Did you know that many pregnant women experience pain in the back and pelvic region due to the release of relaxin and it’s effects on loosening ligaments, which creates joint instability.
This effects all joints in the body and continues to be released when breastfeeding too.
It can take upto 5 months for ligaments to return to their original position and stabilise joints, post delivery.
