💫💫 Ever wonder what a pelvic floor muscle exam looks like? In these videos, I describe what an internal pelvic floor exam might look like. These exams help glean a ton of information on what the pelvic floor is doing— but we have to also determine what that means with the rest of the body. The pelvic floor is just one piece of the puzzle!

Keep in mind, internal pelvic floor exams can be vaginally and/or rectally depending on symptom presentation and available anatomy— and always with consent of the patient.

Let me know if you have any questions!

💫 Birth Prep Program 💫

Our comprehensive birth prep program can start in the second trimester, especially if you want to be proactive in managing your changing body throughout pregnancy and stay active and pain-free.

The third trimester is the MOST FUN! Learn all the things:
💫 labor and delivery positions for the different stages of labor
💫learn how to open the pelvic inlet vs pelvic outlet and when it matters
💫learn to relax and lengthen the pelvic floor muscles in preparation for baby making their exit (remember, the pelvic floor doesn’t push your baby out, your uterus does! So all those kegels won’t help with this part)
💫 perineal massage
💫Push prep!! Learn different strategies and positions for effectively pushing your baby out
💫Postpartum considerations — we review lots of stuff here! Body mechanics with lifting, carrying, feeding baby; perineal and C-section care immediately postpartum, how to support your core and pelvic floor, and so much more!

Call our office to schedule your birth prep sessions!

These are really common areas that people hold muscle tension. It can sometimes contribute to back/hip/tailbone pain, pelvic floor dysfunction, and bladder urgency/frequency and incontinence.

Make it a habit to check yourself multiple times throughout the day to see if you’re holding tension in these areas. If you are, consciously relax these areas and follow it up with a few deep breaths.

If you find yourself continuing to hold tension and can’t seem to stop, reach out for more help!!

There are a lot of muscles that attach to the pelvis— glutes, hamstrings, adductors, core, pelvic floor— and any muscle imbalance amongst these muscles can lead to p***c symphysis pain during pregnancy.

The stronger you are going into pregnancy, the less chances of developing p***c symphysis pain. Sometimes this pain is unavoidable but staying stronger can at least minimize or delay onset of pain in pregnancy.

It’s REALLY tough to fully resolve p***c symphysis pain once it’s already started in pregnancy if you come into pregnancy with a lot of weakness. It’s an up hill battle between muscle imbalances, growing baby, hormonal changes in tissue laxity, etc.

So, this is your PSA to get a well rounded strengthening program started ideally before you become pregnant 💜 your pelvis will thank you

Your uterus is a muscle! And it pushes your baby out during delivery. Contrary to popular belief, the pelvic floor muscles DO NOT push your baby out. They actually need to relax and lengthen to get out of the way for baby to exit.

Our pelvic floor muscles need to stretch nearly 300% of their normal length for delivery 😮

So, strengthening your pelvic floor to “prepare” you for delivery isn’t helpful for the actual delivery part. You must be able to relax and lengthen those muscles instead.

If you’re preparing for delivery, and want to make sure you’re able to do this with your pelvic floor— reach out to schedule for our Birth Prep Sessions!
