#52: Prepping for the Next Pregnancy After Just Giving Birth

Listen Later

Are you planning to have another child after just giving birth like Rihanna? It takes a lot of time to recover from pregnancy and childbirth, so how do you plan ahead and make an effort to find time for yourself and your baby? What preparation do you need for having another baby as it will affect your health in the future? 

 

This week’s Empower Your Pelvis Podcast, Dr. Amanda Fisher goes solo to interview her colleagues, Dr. Michaela Lupo and Dr. Meg Schwartz. In this episode, Amanda, Michaela and Meg will be talking about how the Super Bowl LVII Halftime performance by Rihanna was a strong representation of women who went from postpartum back to being pregnant again with another baby, and how Pelvic Floor therapists have a significant role in women during pregnancy, but so often they are only heard of treating postpartum. They will also talk about why it’s so important to be conscientious of your mobility, pelvic floor and other issues, and how Pelvic Floor therapists make it a little easier on yourself before giving birth. 

 

They  will touch on such topics as:  

  • What preparations do you need for having another pregnancy just after you give birth? 
  • Some women experience weakness from being postpartum, but how do you balance your body while also growing a human inside your belly? 
  • Your body hasn't had to fully build up the strength in the pelvic floor, hips, and full-body strengthening, but a pelvic floor therapist will help you get stronger in a small span of time.
  • During pregnancy and the postpartum period, pelvic health therapists are always working on regaining some glute strength because when you are growing a baby, your balance changes and your posture changes, and typically you might end up with a lot of glute weakness and core weakness.
