There are three recognized phenotypes of IC/BPS:
1️⃣Hunner’s lesions (less than 10% of all cases and less than 4% if under 50)
2️⃣Pelvic Floor Dysfunction
3️⃣Central Sensitization (Nervous system dysregulation)
~
No matter your type, pelvic PT can help. If you have Hunner’s lesions type, your medical management needs to be different. And for ALL types, you need to be worked up for possible endometriosis and/or hormonal fluctuations that can be contributing to or causing symptoms.

First stage labor positions || Supported side lunges with pelvic tilts
~
Loved how this felt on my entire lower body during my first stage of labor! I played with my foot position to see how that felt at my hips and pelvis. I chose a neutral foot, but toes out wide felt good too.

In this video, I started out rocking/lunging gently side to side with a ball to support. Then, keeping my legs wide, I paused ti do some pelvic tilts. Keeping my forearms on the ball increased the stretch into my lats.

Important parts here are:
✅ keeping the movement flowing
✅ not overstretching if something didn’t feel good
✅ rocking forward and backward (pelvic tilting) helps to open the pelvis

Could have also:
▶️ taken away the ball and just used the bed
▶️ continued this when baby was moving into midpelvis

This is one of MANY first stage labor postions that can help! Best to work with a pelvic floor Pat who can assess the ability for your body to get into these positions without straining AND a doula can help suggest modifications for the best outcomes!

Gimme a 👍🏼 in the comments if this was helpful and save this for your birth!

First stage labor poition || Supported squat with gentle movement

This was a great movement and position for me during my first stage of labor! Squatting all the way to the ground felt pretty vulnerable at this stage, but asking for a stool and using that to support, my squat, felt really great.

In this video, I chose to do some gentle rocking back-and-forth motions to increase the feelings I had through my hips. This felt really great to me at the time! You could also choose to rock forward and backwards (tilting your pelvis) instead of weight shifting side to side to see how that feels.

The important parts here are:
✅ pelvic floor relaxation with knees above hips
✅ wide knees to creat hip external rotation

Could also have added:
▶️ partner assisted
▶️ strap assisted

This is one of MANY first stage labor positions that can help! Best to work with a pelvic floor PT who can assess the ability for your body to get into these positions without straining AND a doula can help suggest modifications for best outcomes!

For some, the travel anxieties, the food changes, dehydration, the sleep disruptions make pelvic floor symtpoms worse.

But for a lot of people, more walking, no work, unplugging from the news/computers/social media, eating differently and generally being more relaxed can make pelvic floor symptoms significantly better.

No matter what, the way you feel on vacation can give us some great clues to the true driver of your symptoms.

Let your pelvic PT know wht happens for you so they have more information!! (And pop into the comments ⬇️ below and LMK what your experience has been!

Reminder: nothing it’s easier to treat the longer its there!!

If your symptoms of pelvic floor issues are increasing right around now, then you know they’ve been brewing for a while … and the stress is exacerbating them! Your body is letting you know “please don’t ignore me” … “otherwise I’m going to start getting louder!”

PelvicSanity clinicians have seen it all! 🤩 We are ready to help when you are!
