I have just weaned from nursing by 10 month old baby. I have been under the care of a chiropractor for the past 3 years. It has helped get me through pregnancy and post partum.

I have noticed this past month, while weaning, that my joints and back muscles have been tightening up alot. I also have some knee pain, which is unusual.
I have also had to increase my trips to the chiropractor because I can’t seem to keep things loose, even with lots of strectching and exercise.
Does anyone know if weaning is the cause of my joint problems? Is this a hormonal thing?

Should not be related.

Yes, I would guess that this may be related to your hormones.
Keep up the treatments, exercise and a good diet. Hopefully this will past within 3 months.
