How far post-partum are you? 2 weeks 4 days

How are you feeling overall physically? My tailbone is killing me!! Anyone else have tailbone pain? Dr google says you can get a broken/dislocated/bruised tailbone during childbirth if you have a large or malpositioned baby. I had both. I'm wondering if I should call my real Dr or wait for my 6 week check up. It's not getting any better.

Have you started any sort of physical routine? No because my tailbone hurts! But I want to badly. I lost half my pregnancy weight but it seems I'm going to have to work the other half off and just thinking about my body right now makes me cry. I think I will feel better when I can work out.

Random thoughts..AW my baby slept 8 hours last night.

My tailbone hurt until about 3 weeks PP. And LO was only 6 lbs 15 oz, and was in perfect position. I had to sit on a donut it got so bad. Trying to stand up after sitting for awhile was excruciating. But now, thank goodness, the pain is gone!!! Hope you find relief soon!!! I never talked to my OB about it, but it's worth a shot!

I'm glad yours got better! I'll give it some more time then.

- I'm 9 days pp.

- Actually feeling pretty good! I haven't worked up the nerve to look at my stitches yet... So scary. Haha. But my bleeding is pretty manageable, although I can see it picking up if I'm doing too much. But over all, I'm really happy with where I am-- this time around has been SO MUCH easier than with my first. I have no idea how much I weigh now and I won't know until my 6 week checkup because we don't own a scale. I still look three months pregnant at least, but whatever. I feel good.

- No "routine" yet, but I have been fairly active, running after DS. I try to be intentional and keep my core engaged whenever I need to utilize those muscles. And I mean, I've been lifting my toddler for at least the last few days. (I guess technically I still shouldn't be, but I feel like that's nearly impossible!) so couple that with breastfeeding and just daily life. It's at least something of a workout.

- No randoms for me!
