Probably normal but I would run it by your OB in case they want to check anything.

Pain in your upper belly area can be a sign of high blood pressure, which commonly develops postpartum. If you have any other signs of hypertension, I’d at least get a quick BP check!

Totally normal. At least, it was for me. My abs felt sore and overworked for a couple weeks.

That makes sense, thanks! It’s definitely on my list

I'm guessing some of our muscles are still bouncing back from a lack of activity during pregnancy so it's like waking them up to being used again 🤷‍♀️


i'm pretty active around the house and carry groceries and go on walks. maybe my walk up a small hill yesterday did it...congrats mama and feel better

My recovery has been fairly “normal” but since two days ago I’ve been feeling that my stomach “muscles” (upper belly) are sore (dull pain like I just worked out). Hurts to turn on my sides or get up from sitting. Is this normal 3 weeks PP? Anyone feel these pains this far out? I had a vaginal birth
