Baby has hurt mama...

It started with mid back pain a few weeks ago and has turned into right sided neck and shoulder pain. I've been getting right sided headaches also for the past 3 days. I'm breastfeeding and I don't want to take that much Tylenol. Today I was particularly miserable so I got an appt with a chiropractor straight away. I started treatment today and am happy I'm going to start feeling better. The problems are only in my right side where I hold the baby. I'm just worried also that the problems will continue. I can't not hold the baby or breastfeed her. Anyone else having neck/back problems from holding the baby?

    Tylenol up to the recommend amounts on the package are fine!  My doctor even gave me an Rx strength Tylenol.  Both he and the pedi said TAKE IT if I need it, it won't impact her.

    I totally am having the same problems. I have huge boobs, so I usually have to lay her on my lap and lean over so I don't suffocate her. Its doing a number on my back, but its getting easier as she gets older.

    I did read online that Tylenol is safe in moderation. I just hate taking medicine even the mild stuff. I'm hoping that as LO gets better head control that I can then prop her in my hip and it will take some pressure off.

    I've been having terrible mid-back pain for the last couple of weeks. Between leaning forward while BF because of my huge boobs and carrying her around, it's really doing a number on me.  Chiro and massage have helped and being aware of my posture.  GL!
