My whole pregnancy, I went through pain in my lower back (joints just top of buttocks).. going through the same pain when I am in my 4th month of postpartum.. when I lay down straight on my back even just for 5 min, I could not move after that, my whole hip portion gets locked and gives me tremendous amount of pain and now my knees are also aching after long sitting.. I thought it would disappear after my baby's delivery but no luck.. please suggest, thnx.

Two things which are needed - a check up by an orthopaedic so that the right diagnosis and exercises can be prescribed. Following which you will need to meet a physiotherapist or a pregnancy exercise specialist to help with the same. Additionally you may also need D3 and B12 and again this needs to first be checked before you start.

I had same issue and I was not able to move my lower body at all at night time when I used to lay down in bed... and I used to be like wooden log for atleast 15 mins ..... then after all the pain i used to sleep on my back and had to lift my entire lower back towards ceiling of the room 2 3 times and then I was able to atleadt move that too with pain... but surprisingly when I joined office when my lo was 6 months old my thus pain had vanished.... now I don't have this issue at all at 11 months... what I concluded is it was coz I used to lift my baby in wrong posture and use to have long sitting hours for feeding
