Many people have “6 weeks” in their head as a magical starting point for postpartum exercise but there is so much we can—and SHOULD— tackle before then!

When we initiate PT in the first few weeks after baby, mama has better mental health, better fitness, and better overall health outcomes postpartum! 💪🏼

Were you ever taught normal, healthy, optimal bladder habits? So many people get into sub-optimal habits without even knowing it and then think they have a weak pelvic floor, a small bladder… or they think that peeing and leaking all the time is just normal after having kids! (Nope— pelvic PT can help!)

A healthy bladder should be able to:
💦 Go 3-4 hours between voiding (aka peeing)
💦When needed, comfortably be able to delay 20 minutes after the first feeling of “hmm I think I need to pee”
💦Not leak or rush on the way to the bathroom
💦Urinate a minimum of 3/4 of cup every time we use the bathroom

The first step to habit change is noticing! Spend some time thinking about and/or journaling about your habits and symptoms.

We saw a post recently (from a well-known and widely-followed account) advocating for ways to “protect” your pelvic floor while pregnant: blanket recommendations to eliminate specific movements in each trimester. 😑

Our patients know because we say it all the time: there is no way to guarantee any outcome in pregnancy but there are many ways to stack the deck in your favor. There are also many ways to decondition yourself—such as scaling and modifying unnecessarily.

Every person’s pregnancy is different with symptoms, their comfort level, pain, fitness level, goals—— so we help each mama adjust and modify based on her own symptoms.

Leaking with exercise (or coughing, sneezing, laughing, etc.) is common and treatable with pelvic PT.

Many female athletes and exercisers leak— regardless if they’ve had kids or not. Leaking common across the age span— from teenagers through menopause. It’s not something you need to live with. Pelvic PT can help reduce or eliminate symptoms so you can focus on doing what you love! 💦
