bad back

[Mrs-N]

since having joshua ive had a bad back.

its fine through the day its just through the night.

i dont know if its because how i lay or what.

when joshua wakes up and i go to get out of bed i cant move,it take me a few mins to manage to move.

it feels like my back has seased*sp?* up.

does this happen to anyone else?

do i need to worry

did u have an epidural?

 

[~KACI~]

I have this, no idea what it is though but i know that in the night i have to use my headbord to hold onto to pull me out of bed and then leaning over the cot to get Paige is a nightmare , also happens in the day if i'm still for to long.

I should of gone to see the doc but don't wanna seem like i'm wasting there time.,

I had a couple of contractions in my back during labour and thought this could possibly be the cause x

 

[Mrs-N]

yeah i did,why?

 

[princess_bump]

i have this too, and i had an epidural...

I have a sore back but I thought it was because I have bad posture when I'm BFing. Then again I've been BFing less and it hasn't got any better! I had an epidural, an epidural top up and then a spinal (epidural and epidural top up did not work enough for c-section!)

Yup my mum had an epidural and still has back pain now!

 

[Mrs-N]

shit toria thats not very good.

joshua was back to back so i had really bad contractionsin my back and i was in labour for about 22 hours.

why would i/we still be having a bad back after so long after having the epi?

 

[Serene123]

It can cause perminant back aches! Main reason I didn't want one

 

[FEDup1981]

Yeah it can cause back pain for a while after, i had it, but its gone now. It will settle soon xx

 

[Mrs-N]

i didnt want the epi but after 22 hours of labour and all the contactions in my back i had to have one.

 

[princess_bump]

i didnt want the epi but after 22 hours of labour and all the contactions in my back i had to have one.
