Every day is different.
Your family is secretly plotting against your plans.
Here’s my summer survival guide to stick to your self care/PT homework without the guilt trip!
What’s on your survival list?
Is Overactivity Causing your Prolapse?
It used to be only for women without babies or who had pain with s€x
But what about leakage?
What about prolapse?
Could your pelvic floor overactivity be giving you prolapse symptoms?
Better yet…can we change those symptoms?
What do YOU think?
Should I Run with a Panty Liner?
I used to be anti- pantiliner…
PFPT or bust…
When pads were touted as the only option I would scream from the rooftops to get pelvic floor PT…
Now you’re doing that for me…
It’s a matter of choice, resources and what YOU want..
Here’s my opinion on pantiliners when running… You might be surprised
Give Your Postpartum Symptoms the Middle Finger
Literally pissing my pants without a rhyme or reason…
Ready to double middle finger my leakage, prolapse & hip pain…
I found something I wrote back when I was a little over 3 years postpartum from our youngest…
Take a listen & let me know if you feel me.

Screw this…or not…
You’re super pumped to be back in class & not even 10 seconds into the warm up you’ve peed your pants…
Should you ignore it, storm out in tears or take my advice on how to get a little werk in without losing your workout joy…
Which adventure do YOU choose?
Is Your Postpartum Programming a Mess?
Is your search for answers a hot mess?
Are you saving all the posts, the tips, and trying to patch work your rehab back to running without success?
Where’s my take on why the DIY scrounging approach will never get you the answers that you’re looking for.
😣Feel like I’m calling you out a little bit?
You worked with the trainer.
You saw the PT.
Forget running, we’re talking quality of life here right now.
You don’t want to waste any more time, money & you just want answers
Here’s my take on online programs & what you really need to move forward with less symptoms…
Are online programs appropriate for your pelvic floor issues?
Don’t know what to do anymore?
You paid for the online programs without results.
You worked with the trainer.
You saw the PT.
Forget running, we’re talking quality of life here right now.
You don’t want to waste any more time, money & you just want answers
Here’s my take on online programs & what you really need to move forward with less symptoms…
Does a Perfect Birth Exist?
“I had a natural birth.” “I wanted a natural birth but I had a c-section.” “I’m planning for a natural birth.” I hear the term “natural” a lot from women coming to my office. What they mean by “natural” is an unmedicated, vaginal birth. But there is A LOT of unpacking that needs to happen […]
Do high-waisted pants cause prolapse?
Your pants giving you prolapse?
My argument for why this is a myth…

What do you think?
Getting the Right Level of Care in Postpartum
Did you get put in the wrong bucket?
Here’s my theory…
1/3 of women will do just fine postpartum
1/3 of women would benefit from basic postpartum care
1/3 if women need high level expertise for complex issues or won’t respond to basic care
We don’t triage women well.
Women get put in the wrong bucket (dictated by insurance), don’t get better & blame themselves since they have nowhere else to go.
You get put in the right bucket from the start, the process is faster, cheaper & less mom guilt.
