Why Strengthening Your Pelvic Floor is the Best Mother’s Day Gift to Yourself

It's Mothers day on Sunday and we hope you're all going to be spoiled rotten with a lie in in bed, plus having lovely Sunday lunch made for you.

Being a mum changes everything—your schedule, your sleep, your priorities, your body. But one thing that often gets overlooked in the whirlwind of motherhood is your pelvic floor health.

Whether you’re a brand-new mum, your kids are growing up fast, or they’ve flown the nest, chances are your pelvic floor has taken a hit somewhere along the way. This Mother’s Day, give yourself the gift of restoring strength, control, and confidence from the inside out.

The Impact of Pregnancy and Childbirth on Your Pelvic Floor

Pregnancy and childbirth are incredible feats—but they put enormous pressure on your pelvic floor muscles. As your baby grows, the weight alone can stretch and weaken the pelvic floor. Then comes labour, which often involves further strain, tearing, or even nerve damage.

Common effects of pelvic floor damage after having children:

• Leaking urine when you sneeze, laugh or exercise

• Feeling of heaviness or pressure "down below"

• Vaginal laxity or a sense that things don’t feel the same

• Less core stability and back pain

• Pelvic organ prolapse

It’s incredibly common, but that doesn’t mean it should be accepted as your “new normal.”

Your Pelvic Floor Doesn't Heal Itself

Here’s the truth: your pelvic floor won't simply bounce back on its own. Without targeted strengthening, many mums continue to experience leaks and discomfort for years after giving birth. But with the right support, improvement is absolutely possible—at any stage of motherhood.

That’s where the Secret Whispers Kegel Weights Kit comes in.
