Bouncing Back: Why Pelvic Floor Exercises are a Must for New Moms
Posted by HOLLY MOSACK
Bringing a new life into the world is undoubtedly one of life's greatest miracles, but let's face it, the journey of childbirth can take a toll on a woman's body. While we focus a lot on nurturing our little ones after birth, it's equally important to take care of ourselves, especially when it comes to pelvic floor health. Pelvic floor exercises may not sound glamorous, but trust me, they're your ticket to feeling confident, comfortable, and leak-free post-baby.
The Marvels of the Pelvic Floor: What You Need to Know
First things first, let's unravel the mystery of the pelvic floor. Think of it as a hammock of muscles that supports your bladder, uterus, and bowel. During pregnancy and childbirth, these muscles undergo significant strain, which can lead to issues like urinary incontinence (hello, sneeze leaks!) and even pelvic organ prolapse. Yikes! But fear not, dear mama, because pelvic floor exercises are here to save the day.
