Are You Waking Up In The Middle Of The Night To Pee? Plus Pelvic Floor Dysfunction During Pregnancy

Hi friends,  Today's episode is all about pregnancy norms and comparing it to what would be considered pelvic floor dysfunction. What is "okay" and "normal" during pregnancy when it comes to our bladder versus being not pregnant or postpartum? Is it normal to get up in the middle of the night to pee? Can we do anything to help this?  We'll unpack 2 norms and 3 dysfunctions to look out for during your pregnancy. I'm Dr. Kristin Johnson and I'm on a mission to improve healthcare and women's health accessibility and education. I own R3 Mobile Physical Therapy, a pelvic floor physical therapy practice in Phoenix and treat bladder leakage/ concerns everyday. I also turned it ALL into an online self paced course with options for additional support from me for personalization. Take a look inside my 3 step, easy to-do course ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠! I pray this blesses you. Check out my website ⁠⁠⁠here⁠⁠⁠ to see all of the things I treat as a mobile pelvic floor physical therapist. Some of my favorites include csection scar rehab, low back pain, birth prep, core re-connection, and returning moms to exercise after babies!
