I didn't have much of a problem during pregnancy but since giving birth I still feel like I'm 42 weeks pregnant (my baby is now 11 months old). I can't run, walking fast is uncomfortable, I sort of waddle and picking up my baby I get a twinge across my pelvis. I'm worried about getting pregnant again and whether I'm stuck with this feeling. How will I ever exercise properly again?
Anyway -
I've just been diagnosed by a chiropractor as having pubis symphysis separation and pelvic misalignment. The chiro wants me to take some supplements to loosen up my joints so he can work on them (sacral area). He says he can fix it but I'm not totally convinced.
Has anyone experienced this and can you tell me what was effective in treating it AND can you tell me if it was covered under the NHS?
Many thanks!
