When I first “cracked the code” on stabilizing and reversing prolapse, and wrote and published Saving the Whole Woman, I set up this forum. While I had finally gotten my own severe uterine prolapse under control with the knowledge I had gained, I didn’t actually know if I could teach other women to do for themselves what I had done for my condition.
So I just started teaching women on this forum. Within weeks, the women started writing back, “It’s working! I can feel the difference!”
From that moment on, the forum became the hub of the Whole Woman Community. Unfortunately, spammers also discovered the forum, along with the thousands of women we had been helping. The level of spamming became so intolerable and time-consuming, we regretfully took the forum down.
Technology never sleeps, however, and we have better tools today for controlling spam than we did just a few years ago. So I am very excited and pleased to bring the forum back online.

postpartum prolapse
Dear Shellymum,
I'm so glad to hear this. It has come to my attention again how desperately the midwifery community needs this information, having just heard of a difficult birth at the hands of a midwife with 25 years experience who knew absolutely nothing about prolapse.
Keep up the good work - it takes a lifetime.
Wishing you well always,
Christine

Yay!
That's exciting news!! I have to tell you that I found my prolapse at 3 weeks postpartum and now at 3 months partum (on Monday!) I feel infinitely better. When I found my cystocele it was lying down low, right at the opening. I felt like things were going to fall out and couldn't get comfortable. I felt somewhat better at 6 weeks, but now at 3 months I feel nearly back to normal. The only time I can tell things are wrong are when I need to have a bowel movement but as soon as I use the restroom, I feel better again. (Sorry for the TMI.) I'm hoping that even that goes away in the next few months. I've been trying not to check because I was obsessed at the beginning. So I checked for the first time in weeks the other day and my cervix was really high (had been really low) and the bulge was much less noticeable. The hardest part for me has been staying positive through all this. So just wanted to add my congrats and let you know that you have a lot more healing to look forward to in the coming months. :)
