What will you learn?

• Your pelvic floor during pregnancy: Understand what happens to your pelvic floor during pregnancy and why looking after it matters.

• Pelvic floor exercises that actually make sense: Discover what the research says about preventing urinary leakage, how often to exercise and how to recognise a correct contraction.

• Preparing your perineum for birth: Learn practical, evidence-based techniques, including perineal massage, that may help reduce the likelihood of significant perineal trauma.

• Reducing your risk of more severe birth tears: Understand the OASI prevention strategies you can discuss with your midwife or birth team.

• Preparing for postnatal recovery: Learn how looking after your pelvic floor during pregnancy can support your recovery after birth.

 

You'll actually practise your pelvic floor exercises with guidance from a specialist.

​

We'll finish with a dedicated practical session where you'll be guided through pelvic floor contractions, relaxation and a simple exercise routine you can continue at home.

​

Because knowing you should do pelvic floor exercises is one thing. Understanding how to do them is another.
