Save this for the days you feel like nothing’s working.
When progress feels slow, or your body feels uncooperative, or you’re wondering if it’s even worth it.

It is.
You are.

Healing takes time, patience, and a lot of self-grace.
You don’t have to be perfect to keep moving forward.

Your effort still counts, even on the days it looks different.

Let’s talk about diastasis recti...often called "the mom pooch" (Let it be known, I hate that phrase).

That “gap” down the middle of your abs after pregnancy isn’t your body failing you. Up to 100% of pregnancies end in diastasis (baby has to grow my friends). It should resolve by 8 weeks, but if it doesn't then it's likely going to be there after 1 year without intervention. But here's the thing, it can heal with the right approach.

Here’s what the research (and experience in clinic) shows:
✅ It’s about pressure and coordination, not just muscle separation.
Pregnancy changes how your core manages tension. When that system can’t coordinate, the connective tissue (linea alba) stretches.

✅ Crunches aren’t evil, they’re just step 10, not step 1.
Studies show progressive core loading, starting with breath and control, then resistance, is safe and effective for rebuilding tension in the linea alba (Benjamin et al., 2019; Hills et al., 2018).

✅ The goal isn’t to “close the gap.”
It’s to restore function, tension, control, and strength through the midline. Some people heal functionally even if the gap doesn’t vanish.

✅ You can absolutely get strong again.
When we retrain the core, breathing, and load management together, the body adapts beautifully.

So if you’ve been avoiding movement or feeling broken, you’re not.
Your body isn’t fragile, it just needs guidance, time, and progressive training.

Healing diastasis requires rebuilding connection and confidence in how your body moves and supports you (not about “fixing” your body).

If this resonates, save it or share it with a friend who’s still wondering if that gap can really get better. Spoiler: it can!

The body is connected in some WILD ways. Hips, spine, core, pelvic floor, heck even the feet all talk to each other constantly.

When one area gets a bit wonky (say your core isn't stabilizing well or your hip mobility is a bit in need of some WD-40), then the rest can get......a little spooky

Symptoms like leaking, heaviness, or low back pain aren't random. They're simply signs that something is out of sync (or maybe is ghosting it's typical role)

In PT, we help rebuild coordination, strength, and confidence so that your body finally feels like yours again.

Postpartum is beautiful… and hard. 💛
There’s so much no one tells you about your body, your mind, and what healing really looks like.

So today, I want to start a conversation (comment below):
✨ Postpartum moms: What do you wish you had known?
✨ Expecting moms: What questions do you have about recovery, your body, or what comes next?

Let’s make this a space for honesty, support, and real answers, because too often I find the mom's that come to my office wish they had known more and you deserve to be informed.

Your story might be exactly what another mom needs to hear today.

Note: Keep this a kind and encouraging space please!

Soap. Box. Moment.

You’re not fragile. You’ve been lied to if you’ve been told you are and I’m here to say 🛑 no more.

You’re strong
You’re capable
And if you’re not at your prime, your body is really cool and adapts and improves
Injuries, aches, pains, symptoms we don’t like (hi leaks) are all things we can actually improve, and in many cases, eliminate

That’s all 😅

How do I stop postpartum urinary leaks for good?

You’ve probably tried everything: Kegels, pads, avoiding workouts or activities you love, maybe even just ignoring it and hoping it would go away.

Here’s the truth: leaking isn’t always about weakness. It’s about timing, coordination, capacity, and often… tension.

Most people are unknowingly clenching their abs, glutes, or even holding their breath throughout the day. We live in a constant state of stress and never give our bodies a real chance to relax...and the pelvic floor feels that, too.

When we retrain the system with strength, coordination, load management, and stress management, leaks start to fade.

You don’t need fancy gadgets or another generic exercise list.
You just need to learn what to feel and how to move with your body instead of against it.

If you’re ready for a plan that actually fits your life and your goals, let’s start there.
