As avid lifelong runners, we, Amy and Krystle, know that when you’re a runner, you want to keep running through all phases of life! And sometimes, pelvic organ prolapse can feel like it’s keeping you from doing the thing you love. One of our most popular blog posts was about running with prolapse. So, today we thought we’d expand on that post and bring you more of the education we think you need to know to feel empowered about your own health. Addressing prolapse sooner after it happens is key, versus waiting until older age, as Krystle as seen first hand in her physical therapy practice. In this episode, we will go over what exactly is prolapse, how prevalent it is in postpartum women, what Krystle’s ground rules are for running with prolapse, and many tips on managing prolapse symptoms with the goal of being able to run again! Our goal for this episode is to help bring awareness to this common issue that happens to postpartum women and bring you tangible tips to help you get back in the game and safely out for a run again!

If you enjoyed listening to this episode, we would love it if you could share it to your Instagram stories and tag us, @expectingandempowered. As we like to say, knowledge is power, and we just really want to give more people the information that they may need on their motherhood journey!
