Diastasis Recti can lead to multiple consequences for a mom's physical and mental well-being including lower back or pelvic pain, pain with sex, stress incontinence, the so-called "mommy pooch" or "mummy tummy" and a decrease in confidence and positive body image. DR really can just suck—and even though it occurs in virtually ALL pregnancies, it doesn't necessarily magically go away on its own. So let's talk about what it is, what makes you more at risk for developing it, and finally what is shown to be effective for resolving it and minimizing it with future pregnancies. A reminder I do not produce or edit these episodes- they are a low cost way for me to share free education and content with those interested in what I do and need help navigating through these phases of life. I do the best I can with the time and resources I have for this podcast :) Check out my Post Pregnancy Ab Rehab Course : www.postpregnancyabrehab.com Follow me on insta: https://www.instagram.com/nancyandersonfit/?hl=en Check out my other programs: https://www.nancyandersonfit.com/collections/shop-all Find a CFMT DPT in your area: http://www.instituteofphysicalart.com/index.php/certification/cfmt.html
