I am 4 weeks post partum and my vagina feels gassy, what exactly is that?

[@BeyondBirthingPelvicFloorPT]

Hi Rebecca! This is what we call "queefing". It happens when air comes in the vagina and gets entrapped, and then get released with certain movements. It can happen as a result of pelvic organ prolapse or just lack of tone of the pelvic floor after birth. In any case at 4 weeks postpartum this is not something you should worry about, because you are still in the recovery phase and there is still lots of room for healing. I would recommend consulting with a pelvic floor physiotherapist if you are not sure where to start from with your pelvic health recovery. Regular pelvic floor exercises can help toning up the pelvic floor (if that is the issue) and/or healing a prolapse if you have one. Good luck :)

@@BeyondBirthingPelvicFloorPT I have an appointment next week with a pelvic therapist. I just saw my midwife, she said there is some pelvic floor weakness by my rectum which maybe explains the really bad constipation I have been having. I had a really long labor, my baby also had a nuchal arm and back labor of which I was forced to push on my back because of my babies vital signs. Also, i have like a finger with diastasis near my belly button. How long do you thinl before I can resume, running, weightlifting and situps and crunches?

[@BeyondBirthingPelvicFloorPT]

@@rebeccaschadt7136 something to discuss with your therapist, everybody's recovery is different. But a minimum of 3 months before high impact such as running for sure, sometimes longer depending how your pelvic floor/core have recovered. 1 finger separation is not considered a diastasis by the way :)
