Post-partum tendon/joint issues?

[Anonymous]

I had horrible knee pain to the point where I couldn't walk up or down stairs without gripping the railing and wincing in pain. I mentioned it to my OB who said it was because I was still nursing - that essentially I had the body of a premenupausal woman and that it would go away when I weaned and my hormones regulated. I nursed for a year but the knee pain went away around 5-6 months. Hope you feel better soon!
