Pre & Postpartum Fitness, Diastasis Recti & Reclaiming Sexual Health After Birth ft. Anna Downs

Send us Fan MailPregnancy and childbirth change your body in ways that most healthcare providers barely scratch the surface of addressing — and the path back to strength, confidence, and a healthy sex life after having a baby deserves far more attention than it gets. In this episode, Dr. Stephanie Zwonitzer, DNP, sits down with Anna Downs, pre and postpartum fitness specialist and founder of Move Well With Anna, to give women a comprehensive, empowering roadmap for their physical and sexual health before and after pregnancy. Topics covered: the most common physical and mental health challenges women face during and after pregnancy, effective exercise strategies for each stage of pregnancy that are safe and sustainable, functional strength training for postpartum recovery using free weights and home equipment, diastasis recti — what it is, how to identify it, and how to heal it properly, the critical role of breathwork in core recovery after childbirth, pelvic floor health and its direct connection to postpartum sexual wellness, reclaiming sexual health and intimacy after childbirth including self-exploration and lubrication, the mental health dimensions of postpartum recovery and body image, long term strength and wellness strategies for mothers at every stage, and why women deserve better support and information during the postpartum period. Find Anna at movewellwithanna.com and on Instagram at @movewellwithanna.Work with Dr. [email protected] with Between the Sheets:IG: @ReviveISHEmail: [email protected] on ED: https://EDCure.com/BTS
