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 baby2016 and welcome.
It can take up to 2 years, sometimes more, for the body to fully heal from birth. This would be the ideal spacing, from a health perspective, but might not always fit into the plans of a couple looking to raise a large family. So just keep it in mind. A baby every year is a lot for your body to deal with. We have no way of knowing what your progress would be in 6 months, but the fact is, the WW work is on-going, you will be in this posture for the rest of your life, so any point along with way will work.....but a couple of years post-partum really cultivating your posture and habits will set the stage for the next babe in so many ways.
Prolapse is felt differently throughout the stages of pregnancy; towards the end it will most likely move out of the way. When you are most symptomatic, just getting down on hands and knees can help. The pregnant body does have the same basic configuration as the non-pregnant body in Whole Woman posture, with the organs held forward. I have heard at least one member say that it is hard to hold posture in late pregnancy. This is hard for me to understand because it seems to me that pregnancy automatically puts you in WW posture. Your lumbar spines curves nicely and you couldn't hold your stomach in if you tried! But I had never heard of WW posture during my own pregnancies (kids now in late 20's) so I cannot speak from experience. Whatever bulges and discomfort I felt both during and after, I just considered to be a normal part of the experience. Your generation is so lucky to have this knowledge during these years!
My favorite recommendations for you would be First Aid for Prolapse, and the 2nd Wheel WW yoga. These will get you going "out of the gate" and you can add the full WWSolution program and perhaps Wisdom for the Childbearing Years as you go. Total immersion works best, which is not easily accomplished with a houseful of little ones. But you are on the right track. Good luck! - Surviving
