    I don't have children ...

    but I've been taught that it takes about five months for relaxin levels in the body to return to normal after childbirth. Having that extra flexibility in the pubic symphysis might be a reason to stay off a bicycle saddle?

    Just a thought. Might want to ask your doctor what her reasoning was. It's also possible if you didn't need a saddle cut-out before, you may need one now?

    I don't want to ask my doctor again because I think he's a bit over protecting. He didn't even allowed me to be active while being pregnant because I had problems with my first pregnancy. After I stopped listening his every word and listen more to my body I felt better...

    I'll try to cycle in babycircles and than we'll see how my body will react.
