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.

too big of a promise?
My 23 yr old friend had a speedy 2nd birth which left her, as she put it, rather enlarged, and she was considering surgery. I told her about WW, lent her my book and dvd, and told her implementing what was inside would help to fix things and tone them up and even if she gave birth again, would return things to the way they were.

Birth, prolapse and ww approach.
Hi chikaboom,
Good question. I developed prolapse around 16 years after my second baby, so not the demographic you're asking. However my experience may be relevant as someone who has given birth, (long labour & emergency caesarian 1st time, epesiotomy & lots of stitches 2nd time), developed uterine prolapse years later and even after all that, after 1 1/4 yrs the ww work has moved my uterus back into a good position and my pelvic muscles are firmer than they've been for years. However at no stage would I go as far as to say I was back to BC days! (Before Children). Come to think of it - everything changes after children and I guess that's part of life's rich tapestry:)

That is good news, WWUK, and
That is good news, WWUK, and definitely relevant to what I am looking for. I dont think shes looking to go back to BC days (after all, she had had one child and did not feel the looseness she felt after the 2nd). I just want to know that she will, after implementing ww posture, nauli, etc., find that not only are her bladder and uterus back where they should be (not sure how much of a prolapse she actually has) but that her vaginal canal is also more snug - and that a third birth will not leave her permanently destroyed. I cant rely on my own experience as I have no idea what I was like before my third child, and even with implementing ww, I have not noticed any change in vaginal girth, though my bladder is definitely better than it was in the first pp months. Incidentally I spent a few hours with her convincing her the surgical route is NOT one she wants to take (its sickeningly common here to undergo vaginal tightening surgeries directly after delivery), so I really want this to work for her.

a bit more roomy after each birth?
I don't think my vagina became more roomy after the second or third births. From memory I found that my insides were still tightening up several years after my third baby. The jelly insides stage lasted a couple of years, but then it didn't seem so sloppy a few years later. Maybe it is a matter of getting used to it, but I think there is more to long term tighten up than wishful thinking.
I found this site well after all my babies were born. I will leave it to women who have discovered Wholewoman in the middle of their child bearing to answer your other question.

post birth
Kiko - I so hope you have a fantastic birth with no extra prolapse or laxity to speak of. Sometime back I remember there was a discussion about the notion of remolding of the pelvic organs (for the better) after a good birth. We need records of post-birth whole women!
Louise - interesting bit about the jelly stage. My births have been back to back with hardly a year between so no barometer yet. Thanks for that, I will pass it on to her.
