9/18/17

My days are filled with doubt and fear. I have been clinging to God to squash these emotions. 

After I lost Charlie, I did what any completely irrational, emotion struck, type A personality would do; I dove headfirst into things I thought would help me heal, and would help me get pregnant again, and deliver this time.

The PT in me, looked to diet and exercise, to make sure my body had the right building blocks to support new human life. Prenatal vitamins, more vegetables, less coffee and less alcohol. 

The Catholic in me, signed up for daily devotional emails from Blessed is She. Scripture everyday will help for sure. I am also partaking in a 40 day online retreat through one of my favorite podcasts, The Catholic Feminist

And I had no problem getting pregnant again. Praise God! But oh, these 9 months (hopefully?) will be a daily test of faith. Even writing that sentence I was doubting that Peanut and I will make it. 

And then, on top of this daily inner struggle...what about everything happening in the country and in the world? Texas and Florida have just been rampaged by hurricanes. People need basic things. They need shelter. God is very busy. Am I so selfish to continue to struggle and pray just for me and my family? 

Say a prayer with me today. God, let me trust in you, quiet my fears with your grace, and help those who are suffering keep their eyes on you as they heal and rebuild. Amen.

Meet Abby Inman PT, DPT

 
Hey!! I’m Abby. I’m a pelvic floor physical therapist. I’m a mama to 4 little ones here on earth. I’ve had a miscarriage, I’ve had a C section and birth trauma, and 3 VBACs and it’s my absolute passion to help women (during pregnancy, birth and postpartum (which is for life!)) with taboo issues like pelvic pain, incontinence, getting back to exercise or however you love to move your body, or just not feeling yourself in your postpartum body. 

I think women deserve better than what the current healthcare model is offering. Poor birth outcomes, maternal mortality, birth trauma…Patient after patient saying “why didn’t anybody tell me this before” “I had no idea this existed” Well, I’m here to change all that. 

Pregnancy goes by quick (except the last month, the last month lasts forever!) I’d love to be a constant part of your healthcare team for any issues during pregnancy-- to labor support-- and postpartum recovery. 

All women deserve this kind of care and attention during this time in life. Contact me now and let me know how I can help you!
