In this prenatal pelvic floor routine we will activate and lengthen our pelvic floor muscles to prepare our pelvic floor for childbirth. A regular pregnancy kegels routine is key as birth comes closer because regular pelvic floor training prepares your body for an easier and perhaps quicker delivery. You wouldn’t run a marathon without training for it. Childbirth should be the same way so prepare your body to bring a child into the world. The upcoming ten exercises should become a part of your workout routine and can be done daily if you find the time.

Kegel weights are a type of pelvic floor exercise device that can help strengthen the muscles and tissues that support the pelvic organs. This can be particularly beneficial during pregnancy, childbirth, and postpartum recovery. By using Kegel weights regularly, pregnant women can improve their pelvic floor strength, which can reduce the risk of urinary incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse during and after pregnancy.

Pelvic Floor Muscles Location
The female pelvic floor muscles sit at the base of the pelvis. These muscles encircle the 3 female pelvic openings; the anus, vagina and urethra. The correct action for pelvic floor exercises is to squeeze and lift the pelvic floor muscles around these 3 pelvic openings.

Step 1 Pelvic Floor Exercises
Squeeze and lift inwards contracting the pelvic floor muscles around the anus. Relax these muscles and allow them to rest. Keep the buttock muscles relaxed throughout this exercise.

Step 2 Pelvic Floor Exercises
Squeeze and lift the pelvic floor muscles inside and around the vagina. Then relax and rest these muscles. Keep the upper abdominal muscles relaxed throughout this exercise.

Step 3 Pelvic Floor Exercises
Squeeze and lift the pelvic floor muscles around the urethra (urine tube) and then relax and rest these muscles. Breathe normally throughout this exercise.

Pelvic floor exercises for women combine all steps 1-3 by squeezing and lifting inwards around the anus, vagina and urethra all at once. Next, relax your pelvic floor muscles back to resting to allow muscle recovery before attempting your next Kegel exercise.

3 Best Positions for Pelvic Floor Exercises

1. Lying Down
The best position for beginners pelvic floor exercises is often lying down. This position avoids lifting the pelvic floor muscles and the weight of the pelvic contents up against gravity which occurs when the body is in upright positions.

2. Sitting Upright
Progressing pelvic floor exercises from lying down often involves doing pelvic floor exercises sitting. Sitting on a towel roll can assist with feedback to check exercise correctness.

3. Standing Upright
Advanced pelvic floor exercises are usually performed standing upright so the pelvic floor muscles are required to work harder lifting the weight of the pelvic contents against gravity. Women are usually encouraged to attempt doing pelvic floor exercises in upright positions as soon as they feel confident to do so.

Prepare for pregnancy, delivery and newborn life with Belly Strong Mom’s Guide:

___________________________________________________________________________________________________

Many women will suffer from a weak pelvic floor, especially in the later stages of pregnancy and after delivery. This video will take you through a 5-min kegel workout to strengthen your pelvic floor muscles, and hopefully avoid the leaking urine that tends to creep up during late-stage pregnancy.

It’s important to note that not every women will have a weak pelvic floor. If you’re experiencing things like pain in the pelvic region with urination or sex, painful spasms, or difficulty keeping your urine flow going, your pelvic floor may be too tight. In this case, kegels are not for you. Instead you’ll want to focus on relaxing and lengthening the pelvic floor. A physical therapist who specializes in pelvic floor dysfunctions can assist you in creating an individual treatment program.

Belly Strong is one of the best free online prenatal exercise programs out there. You’ll find prenatal workouts for the first trimester, second trimester and third trimester all in one place. They are a great way to guide you through exercise during pregnancy.

We also have videos covering pregnancy advice for things like pelvic girdle pain, low back pain, constipation, core training for pregnancy, stretch marks, carpal tunnel syndrome, and so much more.

Most of our pregnancy workouts use bodyweight and prenatal pilates moves, while also including safe pregnancy exercises for cardio, the core and general fitness. Enjoy full-body prenatal workouts from the comfort of your own home with no/minimal equipment needed. Your search for a comprehensive online prenatal fitness plan for your pregnancy ends here.

Today we are chatting about how to know if you are doing kegels correctly! Doing kegels or pelvic floor contractions incorrectly can do more harm than good. There are 4 ways to check!
1. Place your fingers on the outside and you should feel the tissues move up and away
2. Internal Self-Check. Place a clean finger inside and it should feel like a baby suckling as you are doing kegels
3. Use a mirror to watch your pelvic floor move up and away
4. Get assessed by a pelvic floor physical therapist!

One of the most important things is to have your infant CPR up-to-date:
