It's impossible to speak about exercise during and after pregnancy without
placing some focus on Kegels and the pelvic floor muscles. In pregnancy
recovery, the pelvic floor muscles should receive top priority. The strength of
the pelvic floor is important in maintaining the integrity of the inside
passages and the position of the organs they support.
The pelvic floor muscles control the flow of urine, the voluntary contraction
of the vagina and the anal sphincter as well. The pelvic floor is composed of
several layers of muscle suspended like a hammock at two points: the front
and the back of the pelvis. The pressure of pregnancy increases the
likelihood that the pelvic floor will sag just as a hammock does.
Not all problems with the pelvic floor are related to childbirth, so I
discourage self-diagnosis and urge you to visit your doctor if any unusual
symptoms persist.

Insight
We are not concern only to the client’s pregnancy but also with the
client’s well being after pregnancy. Kegel’s exercise is really an important
health teaching point that we have to give to our clients. This really helps to
prevent complications like uterine prolapse.
EVALUATION
My Experience
Institution
Metropsyche is one of the hospitals that, for me, are such a wonderful
place for those people that were mentally ill for treatment. They can really
give the clients’ needs.
Clinical Instructor
Dra. Emiliana M. Dator is a kind person. She treats us very well. She
also reminded us important points in our stay in Metropsyche. I am thankful
that she is one of my clinical instructors in RLE because of her positive
attitude towards us.
