The Importance of Pelvic Floor Health During Pregnancy

During pregnancy, a woman’s body undergoes numerous changes to accommodate the growing baby. One area that often gets overlooked but is incredibly important is the pelvic floor. The pelvic floor muscles support the bladder, uterus, and bowel, playing a crucial role in maintaining continence, supporting the pelvic organs, and facilitating childbirth.

Maintaining strong and flexible pelvic floor muscles is essential during pregnancy. These muscles undergo significant stress during childbirth, and having good muscle tone can help prevent issues such as incontinence and pelvic organ prolapse postpartum. Additionally, strong pelvic floor muscles can aid in the pushing phase of labor, potentially leading to a smoother delivery.

Unfortunately, many women are unaware of how to properly care for their pelvic floor during pregnancy.
