Pelvic floor muscles support the bowel, bladder, anus, urethra, uterus, and vagina. Pregnancy and childbirth strain these muscles and make them drastically weak. Pelvic floor muscle training is therefore highly recommended for gaining back strength to make sure that problems like poor bladder control are avoided later in life. Pelvic rocking, pelvic rolling, and abdominal stretch are other recommended exercises in Physiotherapy for postnatal strength training.
