Neck pain during pregnancy.
During pregnancy, your growing belly shifts your weight to the front and tilts your pelvis back. Your neck will then shift forwards to counterbalance that change in posture.
Aching, stiffness or sharpness along your neck or down to your shoulders?
We don’t have to tell you that your body undergoes huge transformations when pregnant.
During pregnancy, your growing belly shifts your weight to the front and tilts your pelvis back. Your neck will then shift forwards to counterbalance that change in posture.
After your baby has arrived, nursing, feeding, burping or just simply looking down and cooing at your child also places additional pressure on your neck and shoulders.
For those reasons, neck pain is common during this time and can be a huge, well, pain in the neck.
