The more research and continuing education I have - as well as lived experience- I have changed how I treat. I think it’s made me more open and a better clinician. If any of these surprised you let me know.

Fun facts: I needed pelvic PT long before I had my daughter. I ended up super weak due to pregnancy symptoms 🤢and have been slowly building my strength back up. I’m a doula and I still had preeclampsia and a cesarean (it was actually super family focused). I LOVE fantasy romance books. Currently reading The Night Prince.

Know that I’m a pelvic PT that won’t just give you kegels (actually I rarely given them at all), I’ll always meet you where you’re at, and you’re safe to come as you are. 💕🏳️‍🌈

I heard the best line the other day- "are you my new chatgpt?"

If I can reduce anxiety during this time of life - absolutely. 😊🤰

🚨As a reminder myself and chatgpt are not midwives/OBGYNs, so I will always refer you to them if it's out of my scope. Most offices also have a 24H triage line that I recommend having you and your partner save in your phone for those more serious questions.

If I have the time I love making postpartum snacks for patients and friends. This one is by @jenneatsgoood . I can attest her meals are delicious! What was your favorite thing to have in the freezer postpartum?

Baby Rebba!
Come along for the ride as I learn how to share my love for pelvic PT, pregnancy, birth, chronic pain (treating it not having it) and probably some fantasy romance books thrown in.

Postpartum PT/OT care is so important!
We tend to fixate on extreme symptoms or even returning to sex/intimacy. OBGYNs and midwives (rightfully) cover birth control conversations at our 6 week follow ups, but it’s often not on our minds at the time. I am holding myself publicly accountable to make an appointment with my friend Dr. Julie at Rally Physical therapy @juliepittman.dpt for a pelvic floor well check (18+ months postpartum 😬)

📣Shout out to @lemonadefitbody for being such a safe and welcoming gym.

Informed consent should include using your 🧠 BRAIN
B- Benefits
R- Risks
A- Alternatives
I- Intuition
N- No (what happens if I decline)

Like I said in the video, the staff with this delivery and my own had to deliver hard to hear news but did it in an empathetic way which certainly helped. I understand not everyone has had that experience. Sometimes it’s a true emergency so there’s not enough time or maybe the provider didn’t explain things in a way the patient could understand. Doulas can definitely help with self advocacy, education and comfort.

Have you ever heard of the BRAIN acronym to describe informed consent?

Doulas provide a lot. It’s one of the most rewarding parts of my job. 💕Tag a friend delivering soon!

The pelvic floor can affect a lot! It’s suppose to be reflexive meaning it works without us thinking about it. However when we have some of these symptoms (and this list isn’t all inclusive) it may be the pelvic floor! Schedule a free consultation in my bio 💕

I recently took my first vacation in three years, and it reminded me how deeply connected I feel to the water. It's one of the places where I can truly slow down and regulate my nervous system.

I'd love to invite you to pause with me for a moment.

🌊 Breathe in through your nose for a count of 4.
Pause briefly.
Exhale slowly through your mouth for a count of 6.
Repeat until you notice your heart rate begin to slow.

If you find yourself constantly rushing from one event to the next, or one thought to another...

If it regularly takes you more than a couple of minutes to have a bowel movement...

If sex is sometimes painful or difficult to enjoy...

These can all be signs that your pelvic floor may benefit from an assessment.

Come join @crane.seven and I to discuss all things pelvic floor.

We’ll be doing some myth busting - like “isn’t pelvic floor therapy for people after they’ve had kids?” Or “don’t I always have to pee after intercourse?” Do you have a question you have always wanted to ask?

❔❔What even are pelvic venous disorders(PeVD)?

It’s when there is abnormal vein anatomy in the pelvis or legs. It can cause:
- [ ] Chronic pelvic pain >6 months
- [ ] Pelvic floor heaviness that worsens with standing, sitting or exercise
- [ ] Painful periods
- [ ] Urinary urgency
- [ ] Pain after intercourse
- [ ] Varicose veins
- [ ] And more!

Next steps:
✅Find an Interventional Radiologist familiar with treating PeVD (a pelvic PT may be helpful in doing this)

✅Find a pelvic PT familiar with PeVD to assist with managing symptoms before and after intervention.

If you’re local to the Greater Charlotte Region that can be me! @tranquilitypelvichealth

Reach out by calling 704-226-4859.

The Greater Charlotte Pelvic Collaboration is a great group of pelvic rehab providers who are ready to help you find next steps.
