In this episode Sarah shares her experience with two third-degree perineal tears, also known as Obstetric Anal Sphincter Injury (OASI). The general understanding of birth recovery - even when it comes to perineal trauma - is six weeks yet the reality is much different. For some women it can take two years to heal and strengthen and as Sarah says, we need more conversations about this and ultimately, more health support. If you have experienced an OASI or you know someone who has, this episode will offer comfort and guidance, especially in regards to follow-up care.

Taryn Watson is a Women's Health Physiotherapist and one of the Directors of Fitright HQ in Applecross, WA, which is a Centre for Women's Health and Exercise.  In this podcast Taryn talks with Dianne about what got her thinking about postnatal checks with physiotherapists and the many benefits of these being earlier 6 weeks. She explores why it is that we wait for the arbitrary 'magical' 6 week mark before many postnatal women start their reintroduction to exercise, and outlines what benefits a woman could gain from being seen earlier than 6 weeks. This can help to change the trajectory of her postnatal recovery, address any issues of pain and uncertainty about what exercises she can be doing during this early postnatal stage. Finding out about how to correctly activate and train the pelvic floor and abdominal muscles in the early weeks, and/or also having a plan for this in the later stages of pregnancy can help to optimise postnatal recovery.  For women wanting to get back to running, they can begin their recovery journey and include functional leg exercises into their day, that can prepare them for their return to running assessment with their physiotherapist.

In episode 34 of the podcast I talk with the incredible Women's Health Physiotherapist, Researcher, Published Author and all around Guru Mindy Cooper about how to best support yourself during breastfeeding, and also about how to take care of your mental health if it didn't work out as planned. In our culture we medicalise breastfeeding, if something goes wrong there is minimal support and we blame the woman. In early postpartum, rather than valuing rest and recovery, 'bouncing back' and being the perfect host to visitors is heralded.  This episode is not a how-to guide, rather a holistic management plan, and it covers: Why we grieve if our breastfeeding journey didn't go to plan Why there is so much judgement in the BF space How to set yourself up early to have a positive journey Why medical advice often doesn't work How to navigate mismanagement and poor advice Why inflammation is so common early on in BF And so much more I hope you all enjoy, and if you are a health practitioner looking to partake in any of Mindy or her team's amazing courses: COURSE DATES, LOCATIONS & REGISTRATION LINKS Level 1 practical dates and the links for registration:   WA | Sunday 2 April | King Edward Hospital, Perth https://www.registernow.com.au/secure/Register.aspx?E=48561     QLD | Sunday 30 July | Royal Brisbane Women's Hospital, Brisbane https://www.registernow.com.au/secure/Register.aspx?E=48565   VIC | Saturday 7 October | Venue TBC, Melbourne https://www.registernow.com.au/secure/Register.aspx?E=48566   Level 2 will be held in Melbourne, Victoria, probably same venue as Level 1 on Sunday October 8.

Mariam Kilpatrick is a Women's Health Physiotherapist and ultra-runner based in Glasgow, Scotland. She is an outdoor enthusiast and can usually be found up a hill in the Highlands of Scotland or travelling and exploring new places with her young family in their camper van.    It may come as a surprise to a lot of people, but Mariam only took up trail running after the birth of her daughter in 2017 when her husband decided to surprise her by entering her into an "ultra" six months after giving birth. As it happened, it turned out it was as part of a team relay with 3 other people and she was assigned to run 10 miles out of the total 50-mile race.    Nevertheless, Mariam stepped up to the challenge and worked hard to achieve her postpartum goal of running 10 hilly miles in the Ochils - her first experience running on the trails in Scotland. Since then, she has been bitten by the bug and to date has run several trail marathons, mountain and sky-running races and ultramarathons with her most recent achievement in 2021, running the full West Highland Way, Scotland's most famous long distance trail which is 96 miles (155km) long. Her goal was to run it in under-24 hours.    As a women's health physiotherapist and a mother herself, Mariam's biggest passion is helping new mums through their postpartum journey. She hopes that her own personal experience will inspire and empower other women to achieve their goals  - whether it's returning to their sport such as  running, or simply just feeling back to themselves again after giving birth.     New episodes of the Tough Girl Podcast go live every Tuesday & Thursday at 7am UK time - Hit the subscribe button so you don't miss out.    The Tough Girl Podcast is being sponsored throughout March by Inov-8 supporting the #MarchDailyMile Challenge.   Use TOUGHGIRL20 to get your 20% discount on all trainers and running gear —>> www.inov-8.com      Show notes Who is Mariam Being based in Scotland Her love of the outdoors and exploring Scotland Wanting to help other women return to running and sport after having a baby Her early years and where her accent comes from  Growing up in New Zealand and moving to Australia Taking up trail running after having her daughter in 2017 Being entered into a 50 mile trail ultra marathon 6 months after giving birth… Meeting her husband and moving to Scotland Her pregnancy and birth story  Working what a PT and doing gym classes Getting back to fitness after giving birth Putting on 3 stone during pregnancy Getting into running after pregnancy  Using the walk run strategy and trying to build up time on feet Training for the final 10 miles of an ultra Not feeling ready for the race Being coached by Jonny @jonnykilpatrick  Starting to identify as a runner  Juggling training and childcare How the running goals evolved over time Thinking about running the West Highland Way (95 miles) in a day Wanting to see what else she could do Entering the WHW ballot  Following a training plan  Figuring out how to fit in running around her life and work Not being able to race the WHW due to covid and restrictions Going ahead with the challenge Making the challenge work for her and her family  Doing the technical section in the pitch black Coming off caffeine before the WHW Having stomach issues 80s power ballads Counting and keeping the legs moving Getting the nutrition in  Feeling emotional and crying it all out The final push - wanting to run the distance in 24 hrs Wanting to get it done The final 14 miles  4 miles downhill and giving everything she had left The finish of the run 23 hrs and 57 mins The picture from the finish line - https://www.instagram.com/p/CQWWl92rHXO/ Connect with Mariam  Final words of advice for runner and new mothers   Social Media   Instagram: @mariam_kilpatrick   ***************************   The Tough Girl Podcast is being sponsored by Inov-8 throughout March.   Use TOUGHGIRL20 to get your 20% discount on all trainers and running gear.    Website: www.inov-8.com    Instagram: @inov_8

Kim was an elite athlete with the Australian Netball Squad prior to having children and was also a Corporate Lawyer. Kim moved on from both representative netball and the corporate law world to concentrate on her passion for health and fitness. Kim has always maintained health and wellness through exercise however following the birth of her daughters realised there was little information available relating to birth injuries and how to improve your overall pelvic floor condition through exercise. Kim has teamed up with a Women's Health Physiotherapist, Lyz Evans and they've created the 'Empowered Motherhood Program'. This is an award winning exercise program for women during pregnancy and in postnatal. Kim draws upon her own birth experiences and discusses the need for more readily available information for women at all stages of their life to assist with strengthening their pelvic floors and understanding the functionality of their pelvic floor through specific exercise programs.   Many women have no idea what prolapse is or understand the impact it can have on your life. Following the birth of her first child Kim was diagnosed with POP and given pamphlets to go away and read. The lack of support and knowledge led to her passion to improve this area of women's health.   This episode is for you if you want to learn more about: improving and protecting the pelvic floor through exercise medical examinations during pregnancy by a qualified exercise physiotherapist to assist with protecting the pelvic floor building strength postnatally  understanding the signs of a weak pelvic floor prior to and after giving birth proactive strategies to assist with birth provide the tools and support for women to regain pelvic floor health through exercise struggles and balancing between motherhood and you (as a person) mother guilt  how to get the support you need from pre birth to post birth and beyond share this episode with your loved ones who are becoming a mumma soon or in the near future LINKS FOR YOU Grab yourself a cuppa from Madame Flavour and use code: BRAVEDR to receive 20% off, plus a FREE gift box of tea.  The Empowered Motherhood Program Have a special offer for $30 off all of listeners Use the code EMPAPP.

What to Expect at the Six Week Check When Pregnant Postpartum can be very overwhelming. Those first six weeks with a newborn can feel like an absolute whirlwind. Your mind and body are still adjusting and there are hormones racing through you like crazy. Plus, you're tired. Really tired. And then it's time for your six week check. To help you go in with some insight, I interviewed OBYGN Dr Suzana Kotevska on what to expect at the six week check. Below are the topics we covered, but listen to the full episode for in depth discussions and what you need to know. Discussing the birth Discussing the birth is a big thing, and can be quite emotional for some women. But it's an important part of you helping to assess their postpartum recovery. Mental Health Mental Health is a big topic, especially postpartum. You mentioned this is compulsory for the health care professional to ask. Are there set questions you need to cover? Wounds Checking C-section wounds and perineum tears and episiotomy wounds Diastasis Recti Discussion on what's normal and what's not. Often doctors will not actually check Diastasis unless they are trained and experienced in this. It is often best to book in with a Women's Health Physiotherapist. Contraception and plans for future pregnancies At 6 weeks post-birth many women aren't thinking about giving birth again so soon, but it's an important topic to talk about Cervical Screening Test if she is due for one. Questions the woman is to ask. Not every Doctor goes through in detail like you do, as you're an OBYGN and often women go to their GP for their six week check. What are some questions you would encourage women to ask their Doctor at the six week check?

She obtained her degree in Physiotherapy, as well as post graduate certificates in advanced pelvic floor rehabilitation, and exercise for women through the University of Melbourne. Kym is passionate about empowering and educating women through all stages of life. Today’s discussion focuses on urinary incontinence in women. This is something that will commonly come up in a case history or systems screen, and once ruled out as a red flag, is often left unaddressed. There is a common misconception that it is an inventible outcome of age or after having children. Part of our role is to educate our patients and know when and where to refer if it is not in our scope of practice. We cover: Common presentations to a women’s health physiotherapist. Urge and stress incontinence. Objective and subjective assessment. Pelvic floor dysfunction and rehabilitation. Effective cues for correct pelvic floor activation. The importance of a thorough and correct pelvic floor assessment to create individual pelvic floor rehab program. I hope you enjoy today’s episode and feel able to inform women that although urinary incontinence is common, it’s not normal, and there is help available. Please see the Womankind website for information on the services they offer.

“Your next position is your best position”. Variety is the spice of life when it comes to the ideal posture and exercise, according to Christien Bird, Women's Health Physiotherapist. Regular exercise is crucial for women in midlife, not just to support bone density, but also to reduce the risk of heart attacks, which increases as oestrogen levels drop, post-menopause. Exercise is also a great stress-buster, and relieving those cortisol levels can make a big difference to your wellbeing during the menopause.In this episode of The Happy Menopause, I speak to Christien about how, when and how much to exercise to optimise our bone, heart and hormone health. As a Women's Health Physio and founder of the excellent White Hart Clinic in Barnes, South West London, she's ideally placed to bust all those myths about what menopausal women ‘should' or ‘shouldn't' be doing on the exercise front. She's a specialist in pelvic floor and incontinence and a passionate supporter of women's health in midlife.We talk bone health, nutrition and the different ways that exercise can keep you strong, healthy and mobile through the menopause and beyond. Christien shares the shocking statistic that from the age of 5, girls are already less active than boys – less likely to cycle, join a sports club or walk to school -  and this gap widens as children grow. The good news is that it's never too late to start exercising and that women actually benefit more quickly and directly from exercise than men! She's full of good advice about the different types of exercise you can try, how much you need to do and how to make sure you don't get in a rut. Your muscles and bones adapt quickly to the same fitness regime, so it's important to keep challenging yourself and to mix it up a bit, if you want to see results.Christien is a really interesting, inspiring and convincing speaker – I've already made some tweaks to my exercise regime, based on her advice in the podcast. Have a listen and see what she can do for you too!
