Ep 17: Postpartum Updates: Pelvic Floor Health, The ”P” Word, and Newborn Joys

In this solo episode Jenna recounts where she is at with her physical recovery 9 weeks out from the birth of her son. She talks in candid detail (bordering on TMI?) about her pelvic floor, and some of the troublesome symptoms she is dealing with that have delayed her return to pole. Despite increased awareness about the importance of pelvic floor health, common issues such as prolapse remain somewhat taboo, and are not as openly talked about as some other postpartum challenges. In talking about her own experience with prolapse, Jenna hopes to help increase awareness and lift the veil of shame around this topic. 

 

The episode ends on a positive note, as Jenna reflects on some of the most joyful things about new motherhood so far, and the things she loves the most about newborn life! Because motherhood may be hard, but it's not all bad. Not at all.
