The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and ligaments that support the bladder, uterus, and rectum.

The pelvic floor is a group of muscles and ligaments that support the bladder, uterus, and rectum. These muscles play a crucial role in urinary and bowel control, sexual function, and overall core stability.

Throughout pregnancy, the pelvic floor muscles experience added weight and pressure due to the developing baby, which can result in problems like urinary incontinence and pelvic pain.

After giving birth, the pelvic floor muscles might weaken or get injured, leading to problems like incontinence, pelvic organ prolapse, and discomfort. It's essential to focus on these muscles during postpartum recovery to regain strength and functionality.

This involves specialized exercises and techniques to strengthen and heal these muscles. Guided by a trained physical therapist, patients learn how to properly engage and relax their pelvic floor muscles through a combination of biofeedback, manual therapy, and targeted exercises

Summertime Self-Care tips for Parents and Caregivers

ESTABLISH A ROUTINE

Create a flexible but consistent schedule for you and your children.

PLAN OUTDOOR ACTIVITIES

Fresh air and physical activity can boost mood and energy levels for the whole family.

SEEK SUPPORT

Connect with local parenting groups, online communities, or friends for emotional support and resource sharing.

TAKE TIME FOR YOURSELF

Carve out breaks and alone time to recharge, even just a few minutes, to avoid burnout and maintain your well-being.

EMBRACE FLEXIBILITY

Be flexible and kind to yourself if things don’t go as planned. Managing your expectations will help to reduce stress.

Not everyone will agree with your parenting decisions...

...and life will go on.
