@Granny Di - the leg lifts will make issues with the psoas worse. It's a bit early to worry about any long term issues with the psoas, but you definitely need to listen to your body. The psoas can take some time to settle because it's used in so much of our movement - especially since its located above and below the hip.
My PT told me not to do any leg lifts during the first few months. They hurt and, since I could do them before, there was no reason to believe it wouldn't come back on its own. His philosophy was that if something hurt while you were doing it, stop immediately. If something hurt that night or next day and didn't go away within a day, don't do it again for a while. For me, too much activity could be like a sunburn - it doesn't seem like much at the time but is exponentially worse later.
When I had a true psoas issue months later, my PT had me shut everything down except "essential walking" for a month to let it calm down. You're probably not in that boat yet, but do take a step back and let things settle. Then, if you want to exercise, add only one thing back at a time so that you can see how your body reacts to it.
