“Things I’m doing to support my 1 year old cook their own dinner” 🤪 sound familiar?

It’s exaggerated of course but it’s exactly what’s in a lot of new parents’ algorithms. Unrealistic, developmentally inappropriate expectations.

Milestones are there for a reason—BUT the timeline isn’t the whole story 🤍

Before new skills emerge, there are often dozens of smaller building blocks happening underneath: movement experiences, strength, postural control, coordination, body awareness, and opportunities to practice.

Development isn’t usually a checklist and definitely isn’t black and white—it’s more like layers building on each other over time. As OTs, we aren’t focusing on the age or timeline of a milestone in itself. The building blocks of movement and body awareness matter to us so much more.

Support the foundation and the skills often follow.

We talk so much about strengthening after pregnancy—but not enough about restoring movement 🤍

Your rib cage and breathing mechanics influence more than people realize: pressure management, pelvic floor coordination, core function, posture, lifting, exercise, and even comfort during everyday movement.

Sometimes postpartum recovery isn’t about doing more—it’s about giving the body options again.

Small movement. Big impact.

Toddler moms don’t need another exercise program—they need movement strategies they can actually use.

Hip hinging won’t solve everything, but understanding how to use your hips/glutes to share the load can make everyday lifting feel easier on your low back, core, and pelvic floor.

💕Motherhood can be repetitive. There’s a way to use it to your advantage. Small changes repeated often make the most impact.

🧠 The more rushed and overstimulated life feels, the more our kids feel it too (which deserves a whole post in itself).

That’s nothing against busy parents because TRUST I’m right there with you and unfortunately that’s just the world we live in nowadays.

👆But in all the busyness, we need to actively remind ourselves that attention, learning, and new skills happen best when the body has space to move and the nervous system feels ready.

💪🏼 Allowing our kids to have opportunities for movement isn’t lowering expectations—it’s creating the conditions for learning.

Stay tuned! More questions + real-life answers coming soon 🫶🏼

☝🏼And that goes for all of us!

Imagine you’re overwhelmed and stressed at work and someone hands you their phone saying, “Here, let me show you how to use this app really quick.” 😅🤯

Learning is hard when the nervous system doesn’t feel regulated first.

I’m not sure my husband knew what he signed up for 😅

Can anyone else relate?
What’s the most unhinged thing your baby has loved to eat? 👇

Want to support their fine motor skills, core strength, attention, and all the skills they’ll need later in life?

The best thing you can do right now is put your expectations aside and LET 👏 THEM 👏 HELP 👏

The best learning doesn’t come from a special toy—it comes from your everyday routines.

And trust me, I get it… it can be so frustrating. Sometimes you really do just need to get out the door. And sometimes your patience left the house at 8AM. But taking a second to pause and ask, “Is this really going to derail our whole afternoon?” can change everything.

When they help, they’re not just “helping”—they’re building strength, coordination, focus, confidence, and nervous system regulation… all at the same time 💪✨

🗣️Just because you have pelvic floor symptoms, doesn’t mean you have a weak pelvic floor.

And just because you have dysfunction at the pelvic floor, doesn’t mean it can always be fixed only looking at the pelvic floor.

🔍Overtime, through consistent habits and postures, our body learns to compensate. Without identifying those compensations, the symptom carousel will continue on.

If you feel like you’re stuck in a loop with your pelvic floor symptoms, it may be time to give us a call!

Welcome 🤝😅

At Lafrance PPH we know all too well that an extensive home exercise program just isn’t going to happen. We barely have time to shower by ourselves.

💪🏼So let’s take the same strategies and incorporate them into your day to day routine. We’re here to help you get better not give you more on your plate to do.

If this sounds like you feel free to give us a discovery call to learn more!
