Pelvic organ prolapse is when one or more of the pelvic organs drop from their normal position and press against the vaginal walls creating a bulge. This may occur after pregnancy, vaginal birth, or menopause. Women with moderate prolapse commonly describe a feeling of drag or heaviness at the vaginal entrance. They may also have low back or pelvic discomfort, incontinence, and difficulty holding a tampon inside. Women with mild prolapses may experience no symptoms at all.

Since starting Be In Blossom 17 years ago the most rewarding aspect of working in this field has been seeing the essence of a community who wrap each other in warm, kindness, compassion, and encouragement. Women who offer to hold another's baby who has been restless so they can participate in some of a class; women who share the wisdom of their birth experiences and parenting journey to offer support to those yet to walk down that road to lessen their fears; women who offer to sit with another as the struggles of their day soak their cheek; and women who celebrate the successes of others. What a wonderful group of women you all are.
