Default neutral position

Chris,
I had erased something I wrote about trying to stay in neutral position w/o any extraneous movements (flexion/extension/twisting) until you're feeling better so I'd imagine that neutral is good if it seems to take the load off. Also wondering about pelvic tilting to bring you into that position (ever so slightly perhaps back flat up against wall and slightly bent knees).

Flexion is what bothers me when something bothers me altho extension would do so as well if exaggerated for any amount of time such as in certain stance. Pelvis forward (at least on one side w/one leg out and one slightly back) and swayback sometimes when holding my dog as I'm strongly using my lower abs. to stabilize while holding this 20lb seemingly big baby. Not good.
