Unusual: Without an exam, this is difficult to say why this is happening. It is very unusual to have this sort of problem 16 months after surgery. Follow up with gynecologist

Post child birth: you had surgery and you had a child. During pregnancy the pelvis and lower back go through changes and this may be related to child birth or pregnancy. It may not be related to c section. Try sleeping on your side with a pillow between your knees. Hope this helps
