Episode Details

Is it normal to leak urine when you sneeze or feel pressure after having a baby?

In this episode, we sit down with pelvic floor physical therapist Dr. Lauren Mallari-Snyder to break down what is actually normal when it comes to pelvic floor health and what may be a sign of dysfunction.

We cover common questions like whether you can lift weights during pregnancy, how to safely return to exercise postpartum, and what symptoms like urinary leakage, prolapse, or discomfort may be telling you about your body.

We also discuss recovery after both vaginal and cesarean birth, including what proper healing should look like and how to support your pelvic floor through each stage of motherhood.

This episode is packed with practical education to help you better understand your body, advocate for your health, and move with confidence during pregnancy and postpartum.
