I am a Chartered Physiotherapist with over 14 years of clinical experience specialising in Women's Health & Pelvic Floor Physiotherapy .
When I discovered I was pregnant with my first child, I can remember feeling extremely excited but also totally overwhelmed. There was simply far too much information out there, I did not know where to start!
All I knew is I wanted to embrace my pregnancy as much as possible, continue to train and ensure I was eating not only the right foods, but enough of the right foods. I wanted to give my baby the best possible start in life.
I also didn't want to gain alot of pregnancy weight, as I knew after I had my baby I would want to get back to being fit, active & also to fit back into my clothes.
I enjoyed my pregnancy,... felt great and was able to train, right up until my ' BIRTHday.'
However, my birth experience was far from what I had envisaged and even written on my ' birth plan.' Unfortunately, after my induction ' failed' I had to have an Emergency C Section.
What really shocked ME was the lack of postpartnin care, after having a C-section, which is classifed as ' major abdominal surgery.'
