#Repost @juliewiebept (@get_repost) ・・・ This. This is from a recent intake form from a new patient. I ask…anything else you want to share as my last question. Answers vary, often this is blank. But this sort of blew my mind. Not that this was news to me…but how clearly and fiercely she articulated the emotional side/toll this issue takes on the women that experience it. How clearly and fiercely she articulated the seeming juxtaposition of the incredible physical feat that is delivery (and for her without meds)…she did that. So how could that same body be so easily felled by a sneeze or trying to chase her kid. But the best part was how clearly and fiercely she drew her line in the sand. This IS unacceptable. It really doesn’t have to be “just how it is”. Ladies…we have strategies to help and it isn’t just Kegels. It isn’t just lose weight. It isn’t just meds. It isn’t just dehydrate yourself so you won’t pee during exercise. And it isn’t just wear a pad. Draw your own line in the sand, ladies. Reach out, find help. #Idontaccept #commonnotnormal #dryandstrong (at Temecula, California)
