re: whole woman store products

Body: 

i've just joined this website and i have a prolapse of the bladder and its approx 7 weeks since i have given birth to our first baby and i'm in my mid 30's....
this website is amazing since i live in new zealand resources aren't always as informed or advanced so finding this very helpful but also wanting to get anyones opinion of what material that is available in the store to purchase will be the most beneficial to try and fix my prolapse.
example which dvd? or books?
any suggestions please???

Welcome missdaisy,
And congratulations on your wonderful bub. Hello from across the way in Australia. . 7wks post partum....well plenty of time to heal, and you will find most post partum mums heal really well.
I had prolapse after my third and healed really well, it just showed itself again 3 years later. So my main piece of advice is even after you have healed, always look after yourself further down the track.

I have found the first aid for prolapse DVD invaluable, and the book saving the whole woman (while very complex in parts) most useful, and a good ongoing reference.
I have just ordered the yoga DVDs and waiting on their arrival, so can't comment on them as yet.
If finances allow, the book and DVD are a good way to start, in my opinion.
Read lots and ask questions as needed, this is a great and positive place to be.
Regards
Lindy

Hi Miss Daisy - I agree with Aussielou that the basic starting point would be the book, and First Aid for Prolapse DVD. If you need to start with one or the other, then only you can decide if reading or watching fits better into your busy life at the moment!

The Yoga DVD's are newer, and they are excellent. The Second Wheel is considered to be especially good for PP women. These videos are good for the body and the soul!

Meanwhile, please get all the posture information that you can from this website. The sooner you start on this postural correction, the better off you are. I wish I had been aware of this in my birthing years; but better late than never for me! Good luck to you and congrats on baby! There are lots of women on this forum from your side of the globe! - Surviving

Hi missdaisy, congrats on the little one! Just wanted to reiterate PP's suggestions to browse the forum while waiting for your book and DVD, especially the pregnancy and prolapse subsection. You will learn enough to at least begin with the posture and other things you need to help fix your prolapse.
