Most likely causes in your case:
1. Muscle strain – long hours of continuous sitting can tighten the lower abdominal and pelvic muscles.
2. C-section scar sensitivity / adhesions – these can cause dull, dragging pain, especially after activity like lifting children.
3. Pelvic muscle spasm due to posture or reduced core strength.
This is usually not serious if the pain is mild and not worsening
Next Steps
What you can do
Take frequent breaks from sitting (every 45–60 min)
Gentle stretching of back and lower abdomen
Warm compress 2–3 times/day
Adequate hydration
Avoid lifting heavy objects for a few days
Health Tips
🔎 When to get evaluated
Please see a doctor if you have:
Severe or increasing pain
Fever
Pain radiating to back or legs
Urinary burning
Abnormal bleeding
Severe bloating
If pain persists, an ultrasound and pelvic exam can help rule out ovarian cyst, fibroid, or scar-related adhesions.
