Pelvic Floor 101: What Every Pregnant Woman Needs to Know

Send us a text (https://www.buzzsprout.com/twilio/tex...) Pregnancy changes your body in powerful ways, and your pelvic floor is right at the centre of it all. In this episode, I share what I truly wish every pregnant woman understood about pregnancy and pelvic floor health, and why waiting until after birth to think about recovery can be a missed opportunity. This is about being proactive, informed, and supported, not perfect. In this episode, we cover: • Why pregnancy and birth are one of the highest risk periods for pelvic floor concerns • The truth about caesarean birth and why it does not prevent pelvic floor issues • Common postnatal symptoms including leaking, pelvic heaviness, and prolapse-type sensations • How pelvic floor physiotherapy during pregnancy can help reduce risk after birth • Why pelvic floor strength is only part of the picture and why relaxation matters just as much • What an overactive pelvic floor is and how it can affect labour and recovery • The benefits of getting a pelvic floor assessment during pregnancy • Why learning about your pelvic floor before birth can be empowering and confidence-building • How staying active during pregnancy supports pelvic floor and whole-body recovery • Simple ways to keep moving when pregnancy makes exercise feel hard • Why birth should be treated like training for a marathon, with recovery in mind • Why it is never too late to support your pelvic floor, whether you are pregnant or postnatal If this episode resonates with you, I would love for you to leave a review or share it with someone who might need to hear it. You deserve to feel strong, confident, and supported through pregnancy, birth, and recovery.
