Hi,
Thanks for query,
This is a bone pain due to calcium loss from your bones during pregnancy & lactation.
A breast feeding mother needs more vitamins rich along which calcium.There are chances that you have not consume proper vitamins & calcium during your term of pregnancy leads to this situation.
So take vitamins & calcium more if you stop breast feeding then also you needs it.
Thanks.
