Up to half of all women experience weakness in both the abdominal muscles and pelvic floor muscles after pregnancy, and up to a third still have a tummy gap at eight weeks post-birth.

This can cause instability or poor core strength, leading to pelvic or back pain, or bladder, bowel, and sexual dysfunction. These conditions shouldn’t be something you just put up with as a result of having a baby.

What is a Mummy MOT®?

A Mummy MOT® is the postnatal check you deserve – a comprehensive postnatal check-up for all mothers. Whether you’re 6-8 weeks postnatal or gave birth years ago, it can help identify and address issues such as tummy gaps and pelvic floor dysfunction.

It’s delivered by our women’s health practitioner, who is fully trained in postnatal care and licensed to carry out Mummy MOT® assessments, providing expert care and support.
