A mother’s guide to powering through a backache

Lower back pain, or backache in general, is common during pregnancy. While mothers are told to prepare to face such a challenge throughout their pregnancy, some of them are not ready to deal with backache after childbirth. There are many causes of backache in mothers. Here’s how to power through it.

When a baby breastfeeds, there can be times when a mother would find herself in awkward positions. Incorrect posture while nursing and rocking the baby may lead to back pain. Mothers can nurse and rock their baby while seating with proper back support to prevent back pain. The Ready Rocker can help ease back pain, taking the strain off the back and the joints.

Getting adequate rest also helps in easing backache. While it may seem like a herculean task for some mothers to get decent sleep with the many demands of parenthood, a relaxed and well-rested body is less likely to deal with problems such as backache.

That said, backaches should not be ignored, notes RockerMama, the maker of The Ready Rocker. Mothers should see their doctor immediately when they begin to feel constant pain in their back. Self-care is important for mothers especially when a baby depends on them for everything. Mothers should visit their physician to make sure that their back pain isn’t because of a more serious condition.

The Ready Rocker was made with responsible materials and environmentally-safe processes. Supportive, yet soft to the touch, it was made with specially treated alloy commonly used in medical implants. Read more about it on this blog.
