  1. Do I have a tummy separation? Should I be worried about my tummy separation or core weakness?
  2. My pelvic floor feels weak. What should I do?
  3. I had back pain and pelvic girdle pain during my pregnancy. Will it be worse in my next pregnancy?
  4. What exercises are safe for me at my current postnatal stage?
  5. I have ongoing wrist pain. Can you give me more advice about it?
  6. What can I do to prevent tightness in my back or a poor posture?
