Did you know Postpartum Incontinence affects 1/3 of moms? This can be an embarrassing and uncomfortable topic, but the fact that it affects so many moms shows there is nothing to be embarrassed about. Even better, there are things you can do to help with it. Today we talk with Samantha Spencer, PT, DPT, Postpartum Rehabilitation Specialist, and Medical Advisor for Aeroflow Breastpumps.  

She talks about managing and caring for postpartum incontinence, including:  
- The differences between stress, urgency, and mixed urinary incontinence, and the causes of each  
- Pelvic floor muscle exercises to help manage postpartum incontinence  
- Foods/drinks to avoid that could be irritating the lining of the bladder and how to implement an “urge deferral” strategy  
- When to consider pelvic floor therapy or seek advice from a medical professional
