This is exactly my life the last weeks. I had my baby end of march. I just left the hospital with this rare diagnosis. Had severe backpain for weeks and basically diagnosed myself. Nobody seemed to listen nor doing any research on why a healthy young mother would break her back multiple times. I broke down three times because of five broken vetebraes in my spine. It is so scary and painful and gets out of control very quickly. Everything turned upside down. I loved breastfeeding my baby and had to stop instantly. As a mother I was the most important person for my baby. Now I feel like the most useless person to him, as I am not even allowed to lift him up and am unable to take care of myself. It is an awful condition and I dont wish it on any pregnant woman or young mother. (Sorry for my English, I‘m not a native speaker).
