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.

would you consider an elective c section
bellydancer2
I sure would!!!! If i had known what i know now, I would DEFINITELY have had a c section , at least then I would not have the incontinence problems I have today, for me everything got worse with every further delivery as I had long labours and forceps and 3 episiotomys. But being ignorant at the time as to such problems as prolapse and perineal damage due to episiotomy, I did not realise what was in store for me and i wish now I had opted for a c sections after my first pregnancy!!

elective c-section vs. what?
me personally, I would not ever choose an elective c section. the risk to the mother's and baby's health is too high for me to justify (talking about true elective c/s here).
I think when we speak about choosing elective c/s we assume the only other option is a traditional medically managed delivery. which may look different depending on where you are. where I am, it looks like this: get to the hospital as soon as your contractions are 5 min apart. triage for up to an hour where you are flat on your back. IV. flat on your back every half hour for up to a half hour to monitor contractions. epidural. lithotomy position for delivery often accompanied by further intervention (episiotomy, forceps, etc). this is not a great option either, but fortunately for most healthy women there is a third option, a completely natural, active birth and full support of the laboring mother. do not underestimate the difference this makes in outcomes. yes, its true that some women who labor in the most natural of natural ways still end up with prolapse but I'd take that anyday to slicing up my abdominal wall. a prolapse is nothing more than stretched out fascia and ligaments. nothing is cut, there is no worries of scar tissue gone wild, adhesions, etc. and like I said before even IF c/s could guarantee a prevention of prolapse (which it can't) its still not worth the health risks imo.
