Just looking for some hopeful stories? My little girl is five weeks tomorrow and I'm suffering post birth with spd/pgp. Hobbling around the house but have a serious waddle and lots of lower back pain, and generally unable to move like I used to without pain but nothing compared to the agony I was in five weeks ago. Unable to go out without being on crutches, and have only been outside twice since she's been born.
My mum has been helping out since she has been born, as I have three other children to look after as well as trying to run the house. Both she and my husband were really great at first but now the understanding seems to be wearing off a little. I'm such an independent person usually, and I feel so awful that I have to rely on them so heavily, it must be difficult for them too and if I could will myself better I certainly would! I'm struggling both physically and emotionally and I'm really worried that I'm heading towards depression.
I suppose I'm just looking for some happy endings- how long before others felt 'normal' after suffering with spd. Did physio help at all? ( I have an appointment Friday) and should I ask them anything specific? Thanks in advance ??
