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.

Hi Malteser24 and welcome,
Hi Malteser24 and welcome,
It can take up to 2 years for the postpartum body to completely heal, so your mild symptoms may just resolve on their own. But, learning how to properly hold our bodies the way we were meant to is valuable for a lifetime for all of us, and can prevent future chances of prolapse as we get older.
This site has tons of valuable information available to get you started. Go to the tool bar at the top of this page and start reading and watching the videos. Great stuff. Getting a good understanding of what your body is going through is the best first step to understanding what prolapse is and how whole woman posture can help.
The forums are great for asking questions, but the best resources are in Christine's work. That is where you will get a true understanding of what whole woman is all about.
Congratulations on your new baby!! And best wishes to you!!

To summarise, this is whole
To summarise, this is whole woman posture:
Stand with your feet comfortably apart pointing straight ahead. Knees straight but not locked. Relax your belly and lift your chest. Shoulders stay down. Keep the back of the neck long by tucking the chin slightly.
Do not suck in your tummy. Do not tuck in your bottom.
I also find I need to remind myself to "lift out of my hips" which sounds strange and I'm not sure I can explain it better.
6 weeks pp is really early. I felt really bad at around four months and then it improved steadily although it has not been going so well the last couple of months (I'm 21 months pp now).stress and tiredness all have their place in making it feel worse. I'm still breastfeeding which may also be a factor. Not a good reason to stop breast feeding though, if you are (not a good enough reason for me to stop, that is).
