What Every Pregnant Woman Should Know About Her Pelvic Floor Before Birth

What if preparing for birth had less to do with “just surviving labor” and more to do with actually understanding your body?

In this episode, pelvic floor physical therapist and childbirth educator Dr. Betsey breaks down how the pelvic floor impacts labor, pushing, tearing, core strength, and postpartum recovery. We talk about why strong doesn’t always mean functional, how athletic women can struggle with relaxing during birth, and what actually helps prepare your body for delivery.

If you’re pregnant or trying to conceive, this episode will completely change the way you think about birth prep.
