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
It certainly is strange, feeling a sensation that you haven't felt before! Things are changing. Good! :-)
I suggest that you get a foam wedge and cut it to fit the dip in your car seat, so that you can sit on an horizontal base in the car. A small lumbar cushion will help hold your lumbar curve. Even a water or air filled hot water bottle will do, adjusted by you to the right fullness.

Bravo oceangirl and thanks so
Bravo oceangirl and thanks so much for sharing this. It is so gratifying when members actually start to see the change in posture happening. It can take awhile, and the fact is, however long it takes for the posture to start clicking, that is only just the beginning of the changes that you will feel. I wish that every prolapsed woman who finds her way here, would just throw her whole mind and body into this endeavor and give it the time that it requires.
After 3 years I still have my moments where I just must slouch for awhile. After 3 years I still get lazy about back support when I am driving. When these things happen, I do feel what you describe. It's like I'm making my body do something it knows is wrong!
I'm still seeing improvements in the degree of restoration of lumbar curvature. I didn't start this work until age 60 so I don't know how much more I can get, but I know that if I clean up those remaining bad habits I will get more. The stabilization of my 'celes has almost become secondary to my obsession with how good my spine and hips feel. I am surrounded by people who have hip issues and I am determined never to be one of them.
Keep it up, girl! Postings from newer members who are still figuring this out have so much impact on these forums. You are making a great contribution here. - Surviving

It is a pleasure to share
It is a pleasure to share positive info! I am amazed how simply one's attitude can make a monumental difference in overall health and relationships with others. It is exactly how stress effects our prolapse; our emotions mean so much!

good posture works!
Just joining in to agree with everyone. After about 2 years of doing this owrk now, I can honestly say the WW posture feels more natural to me than anything else now - and both mentally and physically I don't like being in poor posture.
