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 NP and welcome to WW. I
Hi NP and welcome to WW. I remember well how Christine's explanation of anatomy and prolapse resonated with me the minute I found this site; and the lightbulb moments continued as I got further and further into this work, because once you do it, the truth becomes self-evident. Professionals in the exercise field usually have a much harder time wrapping their brains around all this, understandably, as it does call into question so many of the things they have learned and spent their lives teaching to others. Christine has a great series of yoga DVD's, and once you get through this next baby, and have the posture nailed and your own prolapse stabilized, and other aspects of your life have fallen into place, there's no reason you can't swap out some of the bad Pilates moves for safer ones, and incorporate proper posture into your teachings.
I hope that you can have the birth experience that you want. Find out whatever you can about your doctor's expectations for the birth, and make your own wishes known. Baby #2 often comes a lot faster than #1 (mine sure did) so with any luck, you'll be able to do it your way without as much intervention as last time. But don't be afraid. Prolapse itself tends to get out of the way for birth, and once it's over with, your new understanding of posture and prolapse that you didn't have the first time around, will make all the difference in the world to your post-partum days. Have faith in your body! - Surviving

Thank you
Thank you for your words and understanding. I found them very useful and finally started to feel more confident about my labour. I'm sorry to have taken so long to pass on my thanks: sadly we have lost our baby at nearly 18 weeks. We will be continuing in our aim to add to our family and the positivity I can find in this awful situation is that I can continue to help my prolapses before getting pregnant again. NP

I'm so very sorry to hear of your loss, NP. Sending you the very best wishes and hopes for achieving your family goals. You will find eventually that prolapse is such a small thing compared to everything else! Do work on posture while recovering from this loss because I think it will enhance your physical and emotional well-being right now. Stay strong and confident. - Surviving
