Not f*cking true. Peeing your pants is not part of the territory of being a mom. You don’t have to have surgery. Kegels are not the end-all-be-all. Your pain is real.
No matter how long ago you gave birth, it’s never too late to rehabilitate. In WTF Happened to My Body? I share my proven, innovative tools for regaining your strength and feeling like yourself again. Discover what’s causing your symptoms, learn once and for all the exercises that support and strengthen your core and pelvic floor, how to create more energy, get off of the f*cking emotional roller coaster, and get back to living your badass life.
Have you ever been told: Just do your kegels. Surgery is the only way to fix this. It’s just part of being a mother and aging. Your scar pain is just part of the territory after a c-section. There’s nothing you can do about it, sorry!
Tools for holistic wellbeing — including physical, emotional, and energetic — for moms who are experiencing incontinence, abdominal wall separation, or symptoms due to c-section surgery.

You've been told it's just aging. That this is what motherhood does to your body. Not true. Whether you gave birth two years ago or twenty, the aftermath of having kids doesn't have an expiration date — and neither does your ability to fix it.
