Pelvic floor dysfunction is super common, particularly during your childbearing years. But just because it’s common, it doesn’t mean we should do nothing about it! Rachel Fitt is a Melbourne based Pelvic Floor & Continence Physiotherapist (and Steph’s physio actually), and in today’s KICBUMP episode she explains the importance of looking after your pelvic floor, and what to do if you suspect something is not right.
Steph also shares her own experience of having a bladder prolapse after giving birth to her son Harvey, and asks Rachel what would have happened if she ignored the symptoms and not have gone for an appointment. Rachel also explains why you should take extra care getting back into exercise after birth, and takes us through some of the strengthening exercises during the podcast. Put it this way, you won’t be able to listen to today’s episode without squeezing your anus!
In this KICBUMP episode Steph chats with her amazing paediatrician Dr Golly and his wonderful sleep programs for babies. This time instead of talking about him, she’s talking to him!
Maggie Chretien, also known as ‘The Peninsula Mumma’ on Instagram is an actress, writer, presenter, podcast host, and the biggest job of all… a mum of two!
Usually you’d only hear Steph and her guest for our KICBUMP episodes, but today is a little different! Laura has recently begun her fertility journey and is assessing her options such as egg freezing.
