Postpartum Fitness​

Heal your core, stop the leaks, and get back to the things you love - with a personalized Postpartum Roadmap built for real life after baby.

Let's Clear This Up

Leaking, Pain & a Weak Core Are Not "Just Part of Having a Baby"

You've probably heard these before. Here's the truth.

Myth

"Kegels will fix everything after birth."

Truth

Kegels alone are often not enough — and for many women, they can make things worse. Postpartum recovery needs a full assessment, not a one-size-fits-all exercise.

Myth

"Leaking after a baby is normal forever."

Truth

Leaking is common but not something you have to live with. Pelvic floor therapy has a very high success rate for postpartum urinary incontinence.

Myth

"If you had a C-section, you don't need pelvic PT."

Truth

C-section recovery has its own unique challenges — including scar tissue, core weakness, and abdominal adhesions — that pelvic PT addresses directly.

Myth

"You just need to wait the full 6 weeks before doing anything."

Truth

Gentle pelvic PT can begin much sooner. Waiting too long to address diastasis recti or pelvic floor dysfunction can make recovery harder, not easier.

We Can Help With

Common Postpartum Concerns We Treat

Whether you're 6 weeks postpartum or 6 years, it's not too late to heal.

Diastasis recti (ab separation)
Urinary leakage or urgency
Pelvic pressure or prolapse symptoms
C-section scar pain or tightness
Pain with intercourse (postpartum)
Back, hip, or tailbone pain
Core weakness or instability
Painful perineal scarring or tearing
Bowel urgency or constipation
Safe return to running or lifting
Pelvic heaviness or "falling out" feeling
Breastfeeding-related mastitis or clogged ducts

Our Approach

The Postpartum Roadmap

A structured, progressive plan — adapted entirely to your birth story, your body, and your goals.

1

Recover & Reset

Reduce swelling, reconnect with your core, and start healing from the inside out — gently and safely.

2

Reconnect Your Pelvic Floor

Support healing and prepare for comfortable intimacy. No guessing — we assess what your body actually needs.

3

No More Leaks

Wake up your pelvic floor and restore bladder control so you can sneeze, jump, and laugh without worry.

4

Bye-Bye Mom Butt

Reconnect your glutes and core for stronger hips and a body that feels like yours again.

5

Get Your Strength Back

Safely return to lifting, rebuilding your core, and tackling the physical demands of new parenthood.

6

Jump Without Fear

Confidently return to running, jumping, and high-impact activities — on your timeline, at your pace.

Real Patients, Real Results

What Our Postpartum Patients Say

Erin has an innate gift for finding the deeper causes of issues and setting my mind at ease. My baby was nine pounds, and I didn't even need a stitch! If you're on the fence, make the appointment.

— Brittany W.

Dr. Deliz has been absolutely wonderful throughout my pregnancy. She was so kind, informative, compassionate, and truly took the time to listen and help me feel supported. I always leave feeling better physically and emotionally.

— Suzanne B.

What to Expect

Your First Postpartum Visit

We know new moms are short on time and energy. Here's what your first visit looks like.

1

You share your birth story

Whether it was a vaginal birth, C-section, or something in between — your therapist wants to understand exactly what you went through. Nothing is too much detail.

2

We assess where you actually are

A thorough evaluation of your core, pelvic floor, posture, and any scars — so we know what your body needs, not what a generic protocol says.

3

You leave with a clear plan

Exercises you can do at home, a timeline for returning to activities, and a therapist who will be with you every step of the way.

4

Babies are welcome

We know finding childcare isn't always possible. You're welcome to bring your baby to appointments — we've seen it all, and we want to make this easy for you.

You've Done the Hard Part. Let Us Help With the Rest.

Common Questions

Frequently Asked Questions

How soon after birth can I start postpartum PT?

We can begin gentle pelvic floor work as early as 1–2 weeks postpartum for most patients. You don't need to wait for your 6-week OB clearance to get started — in fact, starting earlier often leads to faster recovery.

Is it too late if my baby is already months or years old?

Not at all. We regularly treat women who are years postpartum and still experiencing leakage, pain, or core weakness. It's never too late to heal.

I had a C-section. Does postpartum PT still apply to me?

Yes — C-section recovery is one of our specialties. Scar tissue, abdominal adhesions, and core reconnection are all areas we address specifically for C-section moms.

Do I need a referral?

No referral is needed in Georgia. You can contact us directly to get started. Many patients are referred by their OB, midwife, or doula, but it's not required.

Can I bring my baby to appointments?

Absolutely. We know how hard it is to find childcare with a newborn. Babies are always welcome at Connect Pelvic Health.

Do you accept insurance?

Please reach out to us directly to discuss insurance and payment options. We'll review your benefits with you before your first visit.

My only regret with Dr. Brandie was that I waited so long to see her. I thought all of my postpartum pain was “normal”, & that I just needed “time” to heal. She assured me reoccurring pelvic pain after birth (once healed) is not normal, & after only 3 visits I was pain free, leak free, and running for exercise again. Dr. Brandi gave me my body pre-baby back, & I am so very grateful!
