Maintaining good spinal posture is important for new mums to limit the risk of developing back pain. When lifting your baby try to get as close as possible, stand square on to your baby, gently bend your knees into small squat, and keep your back straight. Try to maintain an upright posture when feeding or carrying your baby.
