I am 8 months postpartum. I had back ache during pregnancy but since giving birth it has got much worse and I've had terrible back ache. Recently I have been unable to lay on my back because if i fall asleep and then wake up on my back I am unable to move. It takes a good 5 - 10 mins in order to move I have to grab onto something to pull myself up. It then just aches a little during the day. Im fine though if i wake up on my side?
