For a number of years after my last birth, I would hobble when I first got
out of bed, from pain in my pelvis (ileum) and in the bottoms of my feet.
I figured it was the beginnings of old age and did nothing about it.
A few years ago, I suddenly realized I hadn't hobbled since
I-don't-know-when. Could it be that the effects of relaxin take years to
reverse? Any of the rest of you have joint pains that resolved *years*
after a birth? Could this be some of the "fibromyalgia" that women are
being diagnosed with??
