In this episode of The New Mom Talk Podcast, we’re diving into a topic that’s often overlooked but incredibly powerful—prenatal pelvic floor physical therapy for moms planning a C-section. Joining me is Katie Moise, pelvic floor physical therapist, owner of ATL Pelvic Health, and mom, who’s passionate about helping women feel strong, supported, and confident throughout pregnancy, birth, and beyond.

Katie shares how pelvic floor therapy can make a meaningful difference—even for moms having a surgical birth.

She also explains when to start pelvic floor therapy during pregnancy and how continuing postpartum supports smoother recovery and better overall function.
