Pelvic Floor & More
Monthly updates to help you achieve and maintain a healthy and happy bladder, core, and pelvic floor.
May 2022
Wow, did Mother's Day sneak up on me this year! The weather is telling me that it's early April, but my calendar says it's already time to celebrate the incredible mothers in our life this Sunday :) 🌺
It also seems like the perfect time to share that today, May 4, 2022, is World Maternal Mental Health Day.
Mental health disorders, including postpartum depression and anxiety, are very common, impacting on average up to 1 in 5 of expecting and postpartum mothers in the U.S., and mothers of color suffer at up to double the rate. This means 20-40% of pregnant and new moms! Much higher rates than I knew.
We need to look out for one another, especially after these couple years of isolation. If you know a mom struggling right now, help her call 1-800-944-4773 ( Postpartum Support International) for assistance.
