Many women may notice little leaks during the first 3 months postpartum with coughing, sneezing, running, or lifting after having a baby.
While this is common, 1 in every 3 women postpartum, it doesn’t mean it’s something you simply have to live with. If it is still a bother after 3 months, it is essential to seek guidance from a pelvic health physiotherapist to prevent it becoming a long-term problem.
Pregnancy and birth place significant demands on the pelvic floor.
Early, gentle rehabilitation can help restore coordination, strength, and support as the body recovers.
Pelvic health physiotherapy focuses on understanding how your pelvic floor is functioning — not just strengthening it, but helping it work effectively with your breathing, posture, and daily movement.
Supporting recovery early can help prevent small symptoms from becoming longer-term concerns.
If you’re noticing postpartum leaking, book in with Louise for personalised pelvic health support.
