Hip/Back pain after childbirth

This doesn't feel normal? I gave birth 9 days ago and I'm having problems with the left side of my hip on my back with pain that is very sharp and shoots down my left leg with every left step as my foot hits the floor.

I've not really moved much as recovering from birth, but everything else, stitches, rib and chest pain, overall body aches are all improving but this hip pain is constant and really demotivating.

Is this normal? Will it resolve itself? Did anyone else have anything like this? It almost feels like my left leg has popped out of my hip slightly and is stuck out of alignment!!

I've not had this, no sorry. I'd call the MW and discuss it with them.

Congratulations on your new LO Thanks
