yeah stretch that's the best way to relax your muscle and keep it from tightening again!.
You can sit on the floor in front of a wall, place the sole of your foot on the floor and try to stretch forward!. Do so until you feel a mild tension in your muscle!. Repeat this exercise for about 5 times and hold for 10-20 seconds!. Give about 5 seconds of rest in between!.
NOTE: If you feel pain in your leg as your stretching do not continue!. You have to see a doctor b/c if pain is occuring it means that you tore a possible ligament!.
Good luck and congrats on ur baby!. Also be careful when placing yourself on the floor, make sure you have someone to help you down and help you when you get up!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
