Is this normal after birth? 💜
Let me say this clearly, just because something is common after birth, does NOT mean it’s normal or something you have to live with.
Leaking, pelvic pain, heaviness, prolapse symptoms, painful s*x, weak core, breastfeeding pain or blocked ducts are all signs your body needs support, not things to ignore.
As a pelvic health & breastfeeding physiotherapist, I see so many women who were told:�“Give it time”�“It’s part of being a mum”�“That’s just what happens after birth”
And yet, with the right assessment and treatment, symptoms improve and confidence comes back.
Drop me a message to discuss or book.
