21 weeks pregnant with baby number 4 and this is what my workouts actually look like as a pelvic floor PT š¤°šŖ
Hereās what Iām prioritizing and why:
Pelvic floor lengthening ā preventing leaking, urgency, and that heaviness thatās so common in pregnancy, especially with subsequent ones.
Pelvic girdle stability ā SI joint pain and p***c symphysis pain are real. I experienced both in my first pregnancy and Iām not doing that again š
Thoracic mobility ā pregnancy posture changes are no joke. Without this, my back pain acts up and affects me daily.
āHug the babyā core ā keeping that brain-body connection with deep core even as my core grows and stretches.
Strength training ā the research is clear, it benefits both mama AND baby all the way through pregnancy with the right breathing and pressure management.
I know firsthand what happens when you donāt prioritize this stuff, because Iāve lived it! This is the work that makes pregnancy, birth, and postpartum feel strong and empowered.
Wondering when to start pelvic floor work in your pregnancy? Comment BABY and Iāll send you my new write up on this important topic!
