3rd Trimester

Stretch, relax, and learn about your pelvic floor as you prepare for the big event!

Can't see your feet? That's normal. Space is limited these days. You might feel a little short of breath, pooping might be a pain and you may be peeing... a lot. Each of the trimesters requires different approaches to exercise and mindfulness—this one's for the final stretch.

Perfect for everyone—it’s a fundamental step and a daily practice.

Equipment: mat (optional)

Diaphragmatic Breathing is one of the first things I teach my patients. Perfect for everyone—it’s a fundamental step and a daily practice. This can be helpful for anyone, especially those with breathing that isn’t coordinated to the pelvic floor (paradoxical breathers). It can also be helpful for those just starting out with pelvic floor PT and needing a baseline.
