Throbbing pain: With four children you may have developed varicose veins with possible thrombosis. See a vascular surgeon for help.

Throbbng leg pain: You probably are working too much and may not have a nutritious diet with supplements to make up for what the baby sapped from your system and what it takes to make good breast milk. Are you getting enough sleep and rest.? Continue your prenatal vitamins, besure you have a nutritious diet, drink lots of water. Try to take naps and get off your feet when you can. Obtain help with baby and kids.
