This is why your pelvic floor exercises aren’t working…

27/03/2026

Did you know strengthening your hip muscles can help stabilise your pelvis and reduce pressure on your pelvic floor?

So many women stop exercising altogether after being told they have a prolapse but the right movements can actually support recovery 💛

Here are some simple, prolapse-friendly exercises to get you started:

✨ Aim for 5–10 reps of each
✨ Add a band or small pulses for an extra burn 🌶️

Move gently, breathe, and listen to your body consistency over intensity always wins here 🤍

Hospital Bag Essentials 🏥✨
Because labour is unpredictable… but your bag doesn’t have to be 😉

I know I have lots of mums-to-be on here, so I’ve put together a useful, realistic hospital bag checklist to help you feel prepared and calm when the big day arrives 🤍

👉 Always check with your midwife for hospital-specific advice.

For Mum 🤍
• Handheld fan – wards can get toasty
• TENS machine – great non-medicated pain relief (pads on lower back)
• Snacks, isotonic drinks & a water bottle (straws = game changer!)
• Slippers & flip flops
• Maternity pads + spritz for bits (varies by hospital)
• Big, comfy underwear (dark or disposable)
• Calming playlist / Freya app 🎶
• Loose, comfy clothes
• Pyjamas (dark colours, button-up tops for feeding & skin-to-skin)
• Toiletries – all the little comforts
• Dressing gown
• Long charging lead 🔌
• Earphones 🎧

For Baby 👶🏼
• Vests & sleepsuits (newborn + 0–3 months)
• Hats
• Pramsuit (winter babies ❄️)
• Blanket for going home
• Water wipes / cotton wool
• Ready-made formula (if needed)
• Plenty of nappies
• Muslins
• Going-home outfit 🥹
• Car seat (easy to forget!)
