tailbone pain??

[Bri_blushh]

Well I just had my daughter on the 21st of November and she was 9 lbs 1 Oz and I also used the epidural for pain relief. I now have been having pain in my tailbone everytime I get up or sit down. Does anyone know what this is from? Anyone else have it? How long does it last? Please help me.

I have it! Gave birth one week ago, 9,7lbs! Im in so much pain, i can barely move, and getting up from a sitting position kills me. I just started to use a heating pad. Seems to help. I never had this with my first one....although i did tear with that one, so i had that pain to deal with. But this back pain is no joke! It hurts!! Good luck ladies!

My friend had the exact thing happen to her. She said it was from labor and pushing her baby out. She had it really bad, but it got better.

When delivering vaginally, your tailbone flexes back to allow room for baby to exit. It is common to have soreness. You can alternate heat and ice on the area. As far medication, ibuprofen is best for this type of pain.

Hi, I gave birth November 16 and suffered from the same pain up until about a week 1/2 after. My entire bottom half was sore and my baby was only 6lbs. My doctor said it was just due to childbirth and pushing and pelvic bones going back to normal. Congratulations and hope you feel better soon.
