Diastasis recti is a very common condition that can occur during
pregnancy and even extend postpartum. DR can affect women and men
in varying ways and during different stages of their lives. More
research regarding the prevalence, risk factors, and best
treatments for diastasis recti have been on a rise. 


One of the best things you can do during pregnancy is prehab. I
have many long term clients who were able to prevent their
diastasis recti from returning with subsequent pregnancies by
working their core in a smart, functional way the entirety of
their pregnancy. Many report that their core felt stronger than
ever with the prehab work that they did. Pregnancy is not an
illness, there is no need to halt all exercise. We do, however,
want to make good exercise choices. It is very important to
exercise your core during pregnancy but not to increase intra ab
pressure as you do so.
