    Has your milk come in fully? That can cause flu-like pain.

    Also, showering caused body aches for me for several days after C-section. Are you taking care of your nutrition?

    Another possibility is the lack of sleep. You'll get used to that :).

    I am not too sure whether mastitis can cause such body aches. Do you have any symptoms of it? Swollen glands, etc.?

    You have to be more specific about which joints are hurting. And what aggravates it or not.

    Oh and Smith, if you're reading, that could be from holding your baby. Make sure you don't hold the baby too much. Nothing to do with spoiling the child. YOu can't spoil a baby. But everything to do with aches and pains. If some acute pain begins now, it may become chronic as your body still has relaxin in it and will for several months.

    3.5 months post delivery, I still have body ache on some days. And knee pain and sciatica has been there from the 6th month. :( Nothing has worked- Massage, Allopathy or Ayurveda. Going to consult an Ortho soon. It's very frustrating. Yet, I have started going for walks.
