Welcome to the Whole Woman Village Forum!

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.

Pee-on-Pee-Off

Body:

I am still trying to figure out just how to take care of myself here at 24 weeks into my 3rd pregnancy. I rest as much as I can, but with 2 toddlers and a farm to care for, I am still on my feet all the time. I have not been exercising to the point of exhaustion, but try to do a little each day and some pelvic rocks/ jiggles throughout the day to help move things forward.
I am having a really hard time staying in posture because it makes it feel difficult to breath to the point of dizziness sometimes, and I have no idea why this would be. I really focus on relaxed lower belly and pulling the chest up, but it just feels wrong on my breathing. Any tips?
The other thing is, I am having increasing pressure on my pelvic floor and my urethra feels sore alot of the time. No stinging or pain while peeing, like an infection, just muscle soreness related to my prolapse being irritated by the pregnancy. I spend alot of time on hands and knees or elbows and knees to relieve the pressure as a result. I have not had a pregnancy so far with such a bladder urgency as this one. And I still struggle to empty completely. I cannot seem to relax enough in the toileting position or the hands and knees to initiate voiding. I have seen several references to a pee-on-pee-off exercise and cannot find it in the resources anywhere. I wondered if it would be helpful for me or if it falls under yet another "not safe for pregnancy" category.

I realize this isn't your first, but every pregnancy is different, and what you experience sounds pretty normal as you move into the final months. Keep to the posture basics and take it easy on yourself. The breathing issues and the urgency will most likely resolve after delivery. As for pee-on-pee-off, that is in Christine's Urinary Incontinence program. Big sale on, if you want to grab it now. - Surviving

Right After I Wrote

Right after I wrote this, I realized that there is a very good chance I have a UTI. I noticed that the urethral discomfort was not going away with the pressure with I went on all fours or laid on my side. I did not have burning, but a few of my other symptoms lined up. I've never had a UTI, despite multiple pregnancies.
I have been dealing with it for a good week atleast, but I think the fact that I have incorporated homemade kombucha and water kefir into my diet lately may have kept it from getting any worse. Kombucha is very acidic.
So whether this is what it is or not, I can treat myself with some natural safe remedies and get lots of rest and see if it gets better or worsens. Raw apple cider vinegar every hour, 2 cloves of garlic daily, consuming a good amount of vitamin C and some echinacea. We'll see what happens.

Hi Proverbs Mama, try some

Hi Proverbs Mama, try some raw local natural honey into your vagina as well. It will help restore the natural indigenous bacteria that belong there. I would do this twice daily. All the best.
