Postpartum aching

Has anyone else had really bad postpartum joint aching? Im 4 weeks post csection and my knees and hips hurt so much when I get out bed/up from sitting. I do a lot of walking each day and try to do stretches. Is this normal and when can I expect it to stop?

my back plays up on and off since having my little one i’m almost 4 months pp and i had epidural x

Yes! I had this, I started taking postnatal vitamins and omega 3 and it did improve with time (could have been nothing to do with the omega/vitamins!) Can't remember the exact timescale but I am now 6 months post c section and completely fine (but sure I was better long before this don't worry)

Nearly 12 months pp and my knees are awful. Apparently it’s because they get used to weight gain (pregnancy) then weight loss (after birth). Trying to stretch them and walk etc. But they can be painful !
