Third trimester and everything down there feels so tight and tense, esp by evening. I keep hearing about relaxing these muscles for delivery but no idea how to actually do it. anyone tried something that helped?
Haan relaxing it is as important as exercises na. I learnt from a physio, she said dont keep clenching it all day. Breathing out slowly and dropping the tension actually works.
Warm bath, slow breathing and not holding tension down there helped me. Also dont strain on the toilet, that tightens everything. A prenatal physio can guide you really well if its bothering you.
My prenatal trainer taught me deep breathing where you relax the pelvic area as you breathe out, and some gentle stretches. But pls learn it from a proper prenatal coach, doing it wrong isnt helpful.
I did gentle prenatal yoga and the breathing really helped loosen that area before my delivery. Felt it made labour a bit easier honestly. Just make sure your doctor cleared you for yoga first.
