As a pelvic floor PT, I want to clear something up about the 6-week appointment.
Your OB’s job at that visit is to make sure you’re healing medically. Tissue repair, infection risk, how your body is recovering from birth. That matters, and it’s exactly what they’re trained to do.
But “medically healing” and “ready to exercise like before” are two different things. Nobody’s core and pelvic floor are magically restored at week six. And that gap between being cleared and feeling ready is where so many moms get stuck.
I see it in my patients all the time. Googling at 2am. Wondering if what they’re feeling is normal. Doing too much too soon because nobody walked them through what comes next.
The first 6 weeks aren’t a race back to your old body. They’re the foundation of your new one.
This carousel is the roadmap I wish every mom got handed at that appointment.
Save it. Send it to the friend who just had a baby or the one who’s about to.
