Did you know that peeing a little when you did not intend to is COMMON but not "NORMAL." Regaining control is possible with proper recovery and re-training.
What's Missing?
One thing our fitness and health industries are missing is the "retraining" before training element when recovering your postpartum or postmenopausal body. Your body has been stretched to it's limits from the inside out, you're tired, your hormones are quite likely still very active. Returning to the same activity you were able to do before pregnancy can do more harm than good, including create more "pooch". The best thing you can do to prepare to return back to your normal activities, aside from checking in with a pelvic floor physiotherapist, is to re-train your core and pelvic floor, wake the glutes back up, and release any non-optimal postural strategies.
Having had two vaginal births within two years myself, experiencing bladder prolapse, and being so fitness oriented, I made many mistakes returning back to exercises and bootcamp classes that were unfit for my body, and quite honestly, most bodies in the class. I ended up exasperating pelvic floor dysfunction symptoms, and enhancing the tummy bulge, like many women (of all ages) who haven't first re-trained!
