Diastasis Recti & the Pelvic Floor
How Do You Help Moms with Diastasis?
As a pelvic floor therapist, I get asked this quite a bit. Diastasis recti is very common in pregnancy as your body makes room for your baby to grow. However, the wrong exercises or body mechanics can make the stretching worse. Often, it’s a sign that your core is not firing well. But, there’s hope!
Simplifying Care Tasks
The pandemic taught me this: I did not have it all together and making myself feel bad about that wasn’t going to magically make me “put together.” I hope this cleaning method gets you started, because you deserve kindness no matter your level of functioning.
Beyond the 6-Week Checkup
Many moms don’t receive guidance on how their body mechanics change as their belly grows in pregnancy or how to deal with issues that arise in postpartum.
