Joint pain post partum

5 weeks post partum and the last week or so I've had terrible joint pain, pins and needles and weakness. Wrist and fingers mainly but sometimes in my toes and feet. I know some of it is strain from breastfeeding and repetitive movements picking up baby and doing tasks such as poppers and zippers. Im supporting baby when feeding but if anyone has any other suggestions or tips please shout. Back with GP next week and will be looking for physio referral
