YOUR pregnancy journey
With the postponement of the antenatal classes at Limerick’s maternity hospital and many health staff including physiotherapists redeployed as a result of the covid-19 pandemic, expectant mothers might be left with unanswered questions or fear of not knowing the right thing to do.
This mini blog series aims to help you during the weeks and months between now and when your baby arrives.
Your Pregnancy Journey – antenatal perineal massage
The perineum is the area between your vagina and anus and is especially important for all women. During labour this area has to stretch greatly and often can tear.
YOUR pregnancy journey – breath and pain relief
Lots of cool physiological processes happen when you breathe. When you slow your breath down and breathe through the nose, in particular, relaxation is promoted.
YOUR pregnancy journey – pelvic floor function
Another benefit of the breath work as discussed in the previous post is the effect it has on your pelvic floor.
YOUR pregnancy journey – toilet habits
After all the work on strengthening and relaxing your pelvic floor the last thing you’ll want is to have something like constipation (which is common in pregnancy) ruin your good work.

“Brilliant race by Dean Casey of @Ennistrack who smashes the Irish U20 10,000m record in Highgate - his 28:57.34 taking 26 seconds off the record set by @Abdellaadjel_ in March. The Night of the 10,000m PBs is once again a model to all others in how to stage an event. t.co/oZidvfSdzL”We’ve been limiting use of all props for so long because of covid 🤮 but we’ve been reacquainting ourselves at team training this week.

🐩 Adho mukha svanasana (Downward facing dog) 🐕 is one of my favourite yoga asanás (postures) 🏵
For office workers it’s a must! The upper back and shoulders tend to spend a lot of time rounded and forward and our hamstring muscles shortened behind our knees from all the sitting as well as our forearm muscles working hard typing all day.
This pose opens them areas up beautifully and provides weight bearing through the wrists and shoulders 👌 a must as we age and particularly if lowering bone density is a concern.
📸 this photo has been saved on my phone for 3years now as I just love the straight lines created by this fierce septuagenarian. 👵🏻
