    Whoops! I took an unexpected but much needed socia Whoops! I took an unexpected but much needed social media break this holiday season. I will be back to my regular educational content in the new year, as well as some updates to include all the services I provide as an orthopedic and pelvic health concierge practice 🌱🌿🍃

As a pelvic floor physical therapist (and especially a pediatric pelvic PT), one of the topics that I talk about the most with patients is 💩. So for now, I will leave you with this for a quick laugh and friendly reminder to keep your tummies happy this time of year 🤩☃️

💧 Hydration
🏃🏻‍♀️ Exercise
🍎🥦🫘 Fruits, veggies, fiber
🧘🏻‍♀️ Deep breaths 

Wishing you all a happy and healthy holiday season!!
    I love this method to get on and off the floor, es I love this method to get on and off the floor, especially when holding a newborn. In early postpartum, the pelvis can feel really unstable!

    Research tells us that by the age of about 5, a ch Research tells us that by the age of about 5, a child should maintain nighttime continence. There are many reasons why a child might not be dry at night by the age of 5. Oftentimes, this is multifactorial and not at the fault of the child. 

🌱 If a child is wetting the bed past the age of 5, there could be a reason for this that is outside of their control. 

🌱 Constipation, breathing issues (like sleep apnea), genetics, and hormonal or neurological abnormalities are a few reasons why a child might not yet be dry at night. These all warrant a check-in with a medical provider. 

🌟 Gentle reminder that gaining full control of the bowel and bladder systems is a developmental milestone! It doesn’t just happen in a few days but rather is fully developed over a period of time that is different for each child.
