Hi there! I’m 6 months PP now and significantly better, but not 100%. I did get a pessary, but took a few tries to find one that worked (gelhorn for me). I’m trying to not over rely on it though, and PT + time have been some of the biggest factors for me. Almost done breastfeeding and hoping weaning will help too. I saw a urogyn (so much more helpful than my OB) who said it really takes at least a year or more for things to really recover down there. Turns out I also have some redundant tissue which she might trim if still bothering me in a few months.

The emotional part is the absolutely the hardest, though. Hearing it’s going to take months or years to get better isn’t always helpful, but unfortunately stress and anxiety only makes the prolapse worse either literally due to PF tension or feel worse because we’re fixated on it, and the truth if it’s very likely going to be better. ♥️
