NEW EPISODE IS LIVE!
Why a Pelvic Floor PT Belongs on Your Birth Team
Let’s be honest… most people don’t think about seeing a pelvic floor physical therapist until something feels wrong.
Leaking when you sneeze.
Pelvic pressure.
Pain.
Difficulty returning to exercise.
But what if pelvic floor therapy wasn’t just about fixing problems?
In today’s episode, I sat down with Dr. Lauren from Uplift Pelvic Health & Performance to talk about why pelvic floor PT can be such a valuable part of your pregnancy, birth, and postpartum journey—even if you aren’t having symptoms.
This episode was one of my favorites to record because it was the perfect mix of education, practical advice, and real conversation. We covered everything from how your pelvic floor actually works to preparing for birth, postpartum recovery, choosing the right pelvic floor therapist, and yes… why you don’t have to p*e your pants just because you’ve had a baby. 😂
Lauren was actually my pelvic floor therapist during my pregnancy with Emmy, so I got to ask all the questions I know parents are wondering about.
✨ What does a pelvic floor PT actually do?
✨ What happens during an appointment?
✨ Is it worth going if nothing feels wrong?
✨ Is it too late to start during pregnancy?
✨ How can pelvic floor PT help prepare you for labor?
And we also ended up talking about motherhood, raising strong daughters, running a business, and why taking care of yourself matters too.
If you’re pregnant, postpartum, trying to conceive, or building your birth team, this episode is for you.
