Best Belly & Pelvic Flopr Exercises (NOT Kegels!) TRY THIS! #doctor #pregnancy #health #homeworkout



Do you want to workout but have no time because you take care of your kids 24/7?🙋‍♀️P.110

OR maybe you don’t have kiddos and still have a hard time getting a workout in (sometimes you need to rest too)! It’s time to do some “pelvic floor snacks”!😋⬇️

AND STOP the KEGELS and CRINCHES AND START the functional exercise! Most people don’t need these but actually stretching + functional exercise instead!🤯

High impact classes, cardio, and lifting are soooo fun (and I can’t lie I miss being able to workout for 1-2 hours) BUT being a full time mom and trying to also run my business gives me limited time to myself so most days it’s 15 min of exercise😅

If you are someone that has NO time to workout or a busy schedule then don’t worry you aren’t alone! Best MOM HACK I have discovered for this issue is working out with your kiddos and doing EXERCISE SNACKS! (Obviously the more kids you have the harder it gets so be patient w/ your healing journey!)❤️

There are a variety of factors that you just can’t control during pregnancy, labor, and postpartum…(like an emergency c-section)⬇️

So it is important to focus on all the things you can control like EXERCISE! It’s important to prepare mentally, and physically for whatever comes your way. That’s why I recommend patients see or talk with a pelvic floor PT at least once during pregnancy and again pp!

I’m 11 months post VBAC with my second here doing the SAME exercises I used to keep me healthy and protect my belly and pelvic floor before and after my pregnancy!⬇️

In video doing modified side plank on elbow + clams 8-12 reps x 1-3 sets🔥

Want to SPEED UP your labor? Do these exercises! #laboranddelivery #birthtips #birthpreparation



Want to FASTEN your labour? Do these exercises during different stages of labour!

Trust me, these will help for an easier, faster labor with less labor pain! ❤️

✨ During Early Labour — Your baby’s head at the pelvic inlet (at -3 or -2 station)

In this stage, pelvic exercises with wide-open knees open the pelvic inlet, creating more space for your baby to rotate.

These movements also encourage the baby’s descent into the pelvic canal, moving faster into the ideal birthing position.

✨ Active Labour — Your baby’s head at mid pelvis (at -1 to +1 station)

Use exercises with asymmetrical positions to open the mid pelvis and put more pressure on the cervix — dilating and softening it.

It also makes your contractions effective and efficient, helping you cope with labor pains and reducing the need for an epidural. 😊

💡 Bonus TIPS!
🚽 Sit backward on a toilet seat or birth stool with knees wide apart.
🚶‍♀️ Movement during labor is key to FASTENING your labor — it helps with gravity.
😌 Rest in a side-lying position between contractions.

You are almost there! Just get ready to meet your little bundle of joy! 💞
