How can I manage tailbone pain postpartum?

Tailbone pain is a common experience due to muscle weakness, stress, or the physical trauma of birth. To find relief, avoid sitting directly on your tailbone; try using a donut pillow or shifting to a more upright or slightly forward-leaning sitting position. Strengthening your pelvic floor and deep core through targeted exercises is considered a game-changer for long-term recovery. If the pain persists, consulting a postpartum physical therapist is highly recommended to receive personalized, safe strengthening routines.
