Hi.. Joint pains are common after delivery. The reasons are many from weight changes, ligamentous laxity, hormonal changes, loss of calcium because of breast feeding, decreased physical activity. You will get better eventually, but don't restrict your daily activities. Ask your doctor and take calcium supplements. Start walking inside your house and avoid taking prolonged rest.
Next Steps
