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.

Hmm
I had my first in 1988 my second in 1990 and never heard a thing about this...
I cannot see how tippy toes would change a thing really - It's only for a very short amount of time...

Stretching on tippy toe
I had my babies in the late 50's and 60's. I was told the same thing.
The reason given to me was because too much stretching wasn't good until things had returned to normal. Of course being contrary I tried it and don't think it did any harm.

This kind of reminds me of
This kind of reminds me of the time when I was 16 or so weeks pregnant with my daughter and was stupidly moving river rock from our front to back yard. I was understandably severely admonished by my DH who said something along the lines of "you shouldn't be doing that, it's not safe in your condition!" I retorted with "why, it's not like anything's going to fall out!" Hmm, fast forward 5 mos or so and just imagine my surprise! I think of that often now and kind of regret being so determined to do EVERYTHING a man can do but ah well, what is done is done and my babe is just perfect!
Oh and I just LOVE my washing line Louise! Here is sunny AZ we have perfect drying weather year round! :) I haven't had to stand on tippy toes too much but I will think carefully about it if I might be so inclined in the future! :)

Hi UKmummy
Poor old New Yorkers!
I knew there had to be a price to pay for having all those wonderful Jazz Clubs, Broadway and uber-cool black people. Now I know what it is! ;-)
Actually, I think the whole tippy toes stretch thing was a load of nonsense. If you do Christine's baton workout from the new book, have a look at Fig 14-78 on p142, and there it is.
But that wives' tale has stuck with me all those years, but then wives' tales are a bit like that, aren't they? Just pre-WWW urban myths.
Cheers

clothesline
Couldn't resist...we just received (adorable) baby pictures from my new-mommy step-daughter and this was amongst them...a beautiful (upstate) New York clothesline!

clothesline
Ah yes, but what about the NYC dwellers? What about stringing up Central Park with clotheslines for apartment dwellers, just for one day? You could string up an awful lot of diapers in all those trees. Christo and your orange flags, you got nothin' on all those NYC Moms!
I have a lovely clothesline from Lancaster Pennsylvania, but I can't figure out how to attach it. Can anybody tell me how to?

OT: NY clothesline
I grew up in Queens, a borough of NYC
we had a clothesline, but didn't use it much. first, in the summer the humidity slowed the drying, even with the heat. and then the thunderstorms at night would drench everything if we forgot to take the stuff in, and we often did forget.
and we once had clothes stolen right off the line
our clothesline was alot less picturesque than the one your step dd has, christine. behind it was a beautiful old tree, a delapidated garage, and the neighbors house.
and the clothes came in smelling like the ocean, which was only a few blocks away. if you brought 'em in before low tide, they smelled like salty-sun, if not, well, they smelled like low tide : /
