Postpartum Diastasis Recti Assessment #2

Postpartum Diastasis Recti Assessment #2

by Jessie Mundell | Sep 22, 2015 | Blog

I filmed my second postpartum diastasis recti assessment, so you can see exactly what’s happening so far. I did this check at 5-weeks postpartum. My first assessment was at 3-weeks postpartum. You can watch that video and read the recap of how things were doing...

Here’s why ⬇️ Exercise is a baby step towa

Here’s why ⬇️

Exercise is a baby step toward deeper self-care and choosing YOU for you, alone.

On the surface, it’s socially acceptable (aka. patriarchy approved 🤢).

And while I think the patriarchy can take a long walk off a short pier it’s the world we live in.

Society at large STILL talks about moms needing to “get their pre-baby body back” and “bounce back” or “lose the mummy tummy.” So, exercise ticks a box. ✅

To be VERY clear, I’m not saying this to shame moms who want to see changes in their postpartum bodies. You do you, boo. I am here for it.

What I’m saying is that because exercise is a socially sanctioned mom activity, I want to see you take FULL advantage of it. 👍🏻

Why? Because if a mom is exercising, she is taking up time and space for herself.

She’s choosing her needs and goals.

When a mom exercises, she’s saying, “I matter.”

And YOU DO. ✨

You matter. So much!

If you’re reading this, nodding your head and saying “hell yaaaaaa” then come and spend some time with me...

Do you pee a little when you sneeze? ⁠ ⁠ This

Do you pee a little when you sneeze? ⁠
⁠
This might be THE most commonly used example when talking about (the lack of 😒) pelvic floor health and strength during pregnancy, postpartum, peri/menopause.
⁠
But incontinence isn’t the only way your body tells you that your pelvic floor needs some TLC. ⁠
⁠
Other symptoms of pelvic floor dysfunction include⁠:
⁠
➡️ Pain with tampon insertion OR trouble keeping a tampon in place⁠
⁠
➡️ Low back pain and pelvic pain
⁠
➡️ Pain during s e x
⁠
The good news is that this doesn’t have to be your new normal. ⁠
⁠
You CAN work past these symptoms. And exercise can help! 🎉⁠
⁠
If you want to learn how to build full-body and pelvic floor fitness into your busy life, grab a spot in our FOUNDATIONS tier of the To Pregnancy And Beyond program!
⁠
✅ Strength train 2-3 times per week (20-30 minutes) with challenging, yet realistic strength focused sessions – from home OR the gym
