A comprehensive postnatal check from our midwife Mummy MOT Practitioner.
What is a Mummy MOT?
A Mummy MOT is a specialist postnatal check for women following both vaginal and caesarean births. Whether you have given birth 6 weeks or 6 years ago, you will be assessed on your posture, pelvic floor muscles, stomach muscles and c-section scar (if applicable).
Your entire core system will be checked and you will also be offered an internal examination to assess your pelvic floor muscles; this isn't essential but is recommended to conduct the assessment thoroughly. You will then be provided with a bespoke plan to aid your rehabilitation post birth.
This includes:
-
A written report tailored to the findings of your assessment.
-
A rehabilitation plan taking into account your lifestyle factors and goals in mind.
-
Massage techniques for c-section and perineal scaring.
-
Recommendations for follow up appointments.
