Pelvic Floor Friday #6 [Standard Set]

Pelvic Floor Friday #6 [Standard Set]: Kath Baquie from FitNest Mama

Welcome back to the Pelvic Floor Friday session!

Every week on a Friday, I talk you through a set of pelvic floor exercises. Then, our normal podcast episodes will be released every Tuesday.

These episodes are short, these episodes are actionable, and are designed to just help you get it done and tick off your pelvic floor from the to-do list.

Perfect if you’re having a vaginal or a caesarean birth, pre-pregnancy, during pregnancy, or years and years down the track.

You could even send this podcast episode to your mum, as pelvic floor exercises are something I believe ALL women need to do.

So, today, we are focussing on a ‘standard’, or ‘traditional’ set of pelvic floor exercises.

These are perhaps what you’d consider gold standard.

But if you’ve been listening to me for awhile you will know I always say how everyone is on their own journey,

Everyone is different.

Focus on Quality over quantity.

And If you can’t hold for as long as I say, please don’t.

Any discomfort or questions please do stop and consult your healthcare provider.

And, don’t forget these exercises don’t substitute for a pelvic floor assessment by your local pelvic floor physio, they are designed to help with motivation, and support, to just help you to get them done more consistently.

Enjoy!
