In this episode, I interview my friend Jeanice all about pelvic floor sexual health! Here are the questions we go over! Ok, so what exactly happens during pregnancy, and during delivery, to disrupt sexual health? Let’s start talking about postpartum sex, how long should I wait? Should it hurt at all? What should I do if it does? Give me your best tips for having a pain-free experience When should I seek help from a pelvic floor specialist? How do I even find one? What should I expect a typical visit to look like? How long does the treatment typically last? I’m SO embarrassed (and nervous/scared), and I can’t even think about going to a pelvic floor specialist..what should I do? Sex has never really felt great to me, and now that I’ve had a baby it’s worse & painful, is this something that pelvic floor therapy can help? Any last tips you have for moms struggling with sexual health after pregnancy?

Did you ever notice that women are monitored closely for 40 weeks of pregnancy, but once we have our babies we’re sent home with no follow-ups aside from one short visit 6 weeks later? Sadly, our healthcare system falls short in providing postnatal care for the very typical challenges nearly every mother encounters after birth. Our bodies don’t just “snap back” as most of us assume, and postpartum health outcomes impact a mother’s overall future health, as well as the health of future pregnancies.  Pebble is reinventing the postpartum care experience.
