Sandpaper Vagina and Other Intimacy Killers
Season 1 Episode 18
In today's episode, pelvic floor and women's health expert Dr. Marcy Crouch and motherhood wellness expert Alyson Hempsey are talking about all things postpartum S-E-X, like: why your vagina is *so dry* after having a baby and why having sex postpartum can be difficult both physically and mentally. Dr. Marcy shares tips on what you can do to help with discomfort (she is a pelvic floor PT, as you know) and Alyson offers validation from a mental health expert's perspective that it is okay if you're not ready to have sex immediately after giving birth.
Join us weekly as we talk all things related to motherhood, pregnancy, the postpartum period, recovery, mental health, vaginas, and everything in between.
