The birth of a child is meant to be one of life’s happiest events. But for an alarming number of women, birthing people and families, it is anything but. In fact, one-in-three women describe their birth experience as traumatic. We usually associate the word ‘trauma’ with wars, disasters, or serious accidents. A trauma can be defined by any event that causes: significant physical injury or illne...

Knowing what to expect, what’s normal, and when to seek help, is important for your recovery. The Australasian Birth Trauma Association has identified the need for more bir...

Around 1 in 3 babies in Australia are born by caesarean. Women often go into birth not knowing much about what a caesarean involves, or what recovery from a caesarean might feel like.

      Hi Julie - it's incredibly hard to be told that you can't do something again. In my experience, a good clinician should help you get back to doing the things you love. I was told not to lift weights again and I do that three times a week alongside walking and climbing mountains - but it was a process to get to this point.

    Look up UK physiotherapist Anna Crowle whose research is based on the concept that relaxation is required; her belief is that kegels cause more tension around scar tissue in the pelvic floor, which makes prolapse feel worse.

      Go back to your Dr and try a different size or a different type of pessary. You shouldn’t feel it if it fits correctly. Sometimes it take several trips to Dr or fittings . Don’t get discouraged. It happens to many women.

      Hey is your pblm is still there . Menstrual cups can cause prolapse if u pull it harder without removing the suction effect. Watch you tube videos how to remove mensural cup properly without getting prolapse. If ur pblm is still there start kegel exercises , stop using mensural cups , weight control. I can't guarantee you but it might help u. Note that mensural cuo do cause prolapse if u are not removing it properly.
