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.

Good to hear from you Tintagel.
Good to hear from you Tintagel. It is nice to get your head around it and realise that it doesn't rob you of you whole life, eh? Head adjustments are definitely useful!
I have a very inspiring friend who has had no use of his legs and very limited use of his hands and arms for the last 35 years. I figure if he can play blues harp and slide guitar, and sing, then I can manage my POPs. Attitude is everything.

hi tintagel
glad you had a lovely holiday and even more that you are living well even with a POP.
I agree with louise, attitude is everything!
and the truth is, once I got my head wrapped around the psychological impact of POP, the physical stuff was cake. in the scheme of things its really no big deal.
thanks for sharing!

Hey, Tintagel,
Thanks for sharing your story, sounds like you are on the right path. During times of setbacks I always think about my blessings, exactly how you did and I end up being happy and thankful for my family, kids, this whole experience. And for WW, of course!
Re sitting in WW posture: it helps a lot. Some car seats are really uncomfortable, but it seems that yours are better than mine, lol!

That sounds great
Hi Tintagel
Thanks for the encouraging update. Perhaps all the walking really did you good - it always has that effect on me. The physical confidence is the first major breakthrough in managing pop I feel. Once you stop feeling like a basket of eggs, you can start taking control of your life again.
Hugs

Agreed, Doubtful,
This is sooooo true! This fragile, basket of eggs kinda feeling is so discouraging. I still remember this feeling, this made me weak and instable and sad...
1.5 year or so ago, hubby and I started to go on hikes again. I was terrified at first, I felt so fragile and vulnerable because of POP but I still remember how great I felt after a long exhausting hike (15-20 K, have no idea how many miles I am talking about here, sorry), just because I made it! My POP made it too, and nothing happened, POP behaved well. Took me a long time to finally realize, I will not fall apart, because I have POP! It is still me, yes, my body changed but still working quite well! :)
I felt like a basket of eggs for years, turned out I was just wasting my time! Please, learn from my fault, Ladies, trust in your bodies!
