## Resource

In this episode, I’m continuing my Pregnancy Pains series by breaking down symphysis pubis pain, also known as SPD. If you’re dealing with this, you are not alone, and you do not have to just live with it. I walk you through what’s actually happening in the body during pregnancy, why SPD is common but not normal, and what can truly help. We talk about movement modifications, core support, alignment, bracing, and when it’s time to get extra help. My goal is to help you feel more confident, supported, and comfortable so you can enjoy your pregnancy instead of powering through pain.
