  • #39: Core Weakness - The Real Reason Your Core Still Doesn't Feel Strong After Having Babies
    Aug 5 2024

    Today's episode is a bit of an extension from last week's. We know many women struggle with body image, but even when you are months and years postpartum (or even a decade) and you have found your way back to a fitness routine, it's common to feel like your core is still weak and not making the progress you may have expected.

    In this episode we break down all of the very basic reasons your core isn't functioning the way you want it to. We think you will see how a little education that you likely never received about this area of your body can go a long way! With this information, it might be easier than you think you finally make better progress with your core strength!

  • #38: Body Image Struggles - The Hard Truth about your Postpartum Body
    Jul 29 2024

    Something we both deal with frequently in working with moms is postpartum body imagine issues. There is so much misinformation out there about diastasis recti, the ability to ‘bounce back,’ and expectations regarding your postpartum belly. In the episode we aim to level set expectations, and help you shift your focus so you can stop beating yourself up or comparing your postpartum belly to a belly that never experienced pregnancy.

    If you are a new listener, you might want to check out the Diastasis Recti Episode (#21) first!

  • #37: Preparing for Birth Better - What You Need to Know that your Hospital Class Won't Teach You
    Jul 22 2024

    If you are expecting right now, congrats! Preparing to welcome a baby into the world, especially as a first time mom, can be overwhelming. Most moms will take the prep class the hospital they are delivering at provides. While that is great and recommended, we are going to fill you in on why you ALSO need to complete birth prep with a pelvic floor physical therapist.

    If you don't have a quality provider near you, or 1:1 is not within your budget, Dr. Jenn has a virtual birth prep option that will teach you everything you need to work towards the birth experience you are looking for, even if this is not your first!
