She is like opening Mary Poppins’ bag, but instead of coatracks and mirrors, you get an endless supply of love and support. . . Sometimes you don’t get to spend Mother’s Day the way you’d hoped. You don’t get that handmade card and handpicked wildflowers that usually accompany this day.. and your birthday.. and valentine’s.. But all that matters now is you’re spending it with the person that made you a wife and mama. . . Today was spent with my dad in the hospital as the docs figure out what is best for his heart. In times like these, all that matters is being together. . . I love you mom. And dad. This bundle has filled my life with more joy than I could have ever imagined. I am so thankful for you, Ridley. .

Come on over at 7:30pm central!! . #Repost @legendairymilk ・・・ Most women with diastasis recti will notice a bulge between their abdominal muscles when they try to do sit ups or lift their child. With contraction of their abdominals they may also be able to feel a separation between the muscles at their midline of more than two finger-widths.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ You might be more likely to develop diastasis recti as a result of pregnancy if you have carried multiples or a large baby to term and are of small stature and fit or are age 35 or older.⁣⁣ ⁣⁣ Join us tonight for a live workshop taught by Lacey Welch from @underthewomanhood, a Pelvic Health Physical Therapist. She will be discussing diastasis recti (abdominal separation) and prevention. You won’t want to miss this one! She’ll be going live at 7:30 pm CT/8:30 pm ET. What questions do you have about diastasis recti? 📷: @lorynbrantz Not only do we need to keep our bladder healthy by maintaining good behavioral habits (see previous post), we also need to tune in to HOW we let it flow. ⠀⠀ 🚰 ⠀⠀ Many of us are in a rush, so we get to the toilet and bear down/strain/push the urine out faster to get back to work, leave the house, or see what the toddler is destroying. ⠀⠀ We may also find ourselves hovering/squatting over the toilet and not sitting. ⠀⠀ 🚰 ⠀⠀ When we strain to get the urine out faster (or to start a stream in some cases), this places increased pressure on our pelvic organs and pelvic floor muscles, which can worsen, or increase the risk of developing a pelvic organ prolapse. ⠀⠀ When we don’t sit our hiney on the toilet, it doesn’t allow our pelvic floor muscles to fully relax in order to let the urine stream easily flow. This may cause us to retain urine (beyond what is normally left behind) and bacteria which could lead to infection and/or increase urinary frequency because we are not fully emptying the bladder. ⠀⠀ 🚰 ⠀⠀ So the next time you go pee 👉🏻 sit down, relax your jaw, relax your pelvic floor, breathe and enjoy a 15 second or longer rest break on the toilet. 🤗💤💦🚽 ⠀⠀ . . . #underthehoodpt #underthewomanhood #physicaltherapy #pelvichealthpt #pelvichealthphysio #bladderhealth #toiletingtips #urinaryfrequency #pelvicorganprolapse #toiletposture #enjoyanicepee
