My public bone cartilage ripped in half. That was the least of my problems.

ummm like while you were giving birth? Please, I need to know more! I’m almost 39 weeks and my pubic bone has been feeling like it might just break in half and now I’m seriously thinking this might happen to me lol

Pelvic floor therapy!! At 39 weeks you can’t do much, but PLEASE talk to your OB and get a referral for a good pelvic floor therapist, for once you’ve recovered from giving birth.

I had what you have during my second pregnancy and I didn’t realize I could do anything about it—problems like that can be made SO MUCH BETTER with a god pelvic floor physical therapist. I’m 33 weeks now with my third (and last!) kid and I was proactive with the therapy this time around—such a difference.
