Leaking After 6 Weeks Postpartum? Here’s Why and How Physiotherapy Can Help | Momentum Physio

If you’re still leaking when you sneeze, laugh, or jump even after being cleared at your 6-week postpartum checkup, you're not alone — and it’s not your fault.

In this video, Tithi Patil, Registered Physiotherapist at Momentum Spine & Sports Physiotherapy, explains why leaking and pelvic pressure can persist postpartum, even after clearance. Many women are told they are fine after 6 weeks, but a pelvic floor assessment is often overlooked, leaving deep muscles that support the bladder and uterus still in recovery.

👉 What you’ll learn:
• Why you might still be leaking after childbirth
• The role of the pelvic floor in bladder control and core strength
• How pelvic floor physiotherapy can improve bladder control and reduce leaks
• When to seek help and what steps to take
• Simple techniques to support recovery and restore confidence

At Momentum Spine & Sports Physiotherapy, we help new moms rebuild pelvic coordination, improve bladder control, and return to daily activities and exercise without the fear of leaks or pressure.

If you’re still dealing with leaks, pelvic heaviness, or a disconnected core after 6 weeks postpartum, pelvic floor physiotherapy can help. It’s not just in your head — and it’s not something you have to live with. We offer private, respectful care focused on restoring function, not just checking a box.
