Mere gynac told me to start kegels but honestly I have no idea if im doing it right. Im in 2nd trimester and just want to keep things strong down there. Can someone explain the actual way to do it na, like how many times a day?
My husband always says correct form is key, so don't hold your breath or tighten your tummy while doing it. Focus only on the pelvic muscles, do 10 reps three times a day. Ask your gynac once if they have any specific advice for your body.
Hey, kegels are super easy, don't stress too much about getting it perfect! Just imagine you are trying to stop your pee mid-flow, hold for 5 seconds and release. You can do it anytime, even while watching TV.
Actually, even though I had a C-section, doing kegels during my pregnancy really helped with pelvic floor recovery later. Just sit comfortably, tighten those muscles like you're holding urine, hold, and relax. It helps so much post-delivery too, trust me.
Oh god, kegels are like that secret workout you can do in a boring meeting and nobody knows! Just squeeze, hold, and pretend you're listening. It really helps later, so keep squeezing, girl!
My little one is a toddler now and running around, but I still remember trying to do kegels. Just do them casually whenever u remember, like brushing teeth. It really helps with bladder control later, so don't worry.
Uff, in my 3rd trimester, even breathing feels like a workout! I just do kegels while lying down because standing up is a task now. Just squeeze, hold, and pray the baby comes out easily, haha.
Honestly, I do my kegels while waiting for my Swiggy delivery to arrive, haha! Squeeze for a few seconds, release, and repeat. At least I feel like I'm doing some workout before binging on pani puri!
After my long IVF journey, I was super cautious about any exercise. My doctor said gentle kegels are completely safe and good. Just gently contract the muscles, hold for a few counts, and breathe normally. Sending you so much love.
I'm no expert, but I used to do it daily during my second trimester. I would just lie down, tighten the pelvic floor muscles for 5 seconds, and release them. It felt quite safe and easy for me, but check what works for u.
When I was pregnant, I found it easiest to do kegels while sitting on a pregnancy ball. Just gentle holding and releasing. It really built up the strength I needed later on, so thoda thoda everyday is good.
