Did you really do Pelvic Exercises after giving birth ? is it really impt. and why ?

Question

I gave birth 26 days ago after 14 hrs. of labour then had an emergency Csection. At the hospital,we were advised that we should do Pelvic exercises when we come home.

I just want to know if every mommies here did their pelvic exercises,religiously ? is it really impt ? do you think the elasticity wont go back if you wont do the pelvic ex ??

Answer 1

i never did them and i didnt have a problem but then again, i was in labor for like 20 mins before i had my daughter.

Answer 2

I did some but with everything else there is to do after having a baby, it is easy to forget to do them.  I did them when I remembered.  Only thing now, after 2 children, is if I jump on the kids trampoline, there is a tiny 'leak'!

Answer 3

Yes it is important if you want to be able to cough, sneeze or laugh out loud in public :)

I do them when I remember (arches eyebrows and clenches) but to be honest I rarely DO remember.
