The Value of Doing Kegels

Published by figur8 at 3:26 pm under Pregnancy, exercise

I’ve been falling a little behind in reading my pregnancy books and finally managed to catch up to the 6th month.

We’ve all heard about Kegel exercises and how important they are but up until now I’ve probably only been practicing them as faithfully as my mind can remember to do them. That is, until I read the chapter on the 5th month in “What to Expect When You’re Expecting”. Sure it’d be nice to still be able to have great sex after birth and not having to worry about accidentally leaking a couple of drops now and then, but what really sold me on Kegel exercises was the part about reducing the likelihood of having to have an episiotomy or tearing during labour.

Yep… You’ve definitely got a believer here…
