Have you seen this site, Mammamo? http://www.wholewoman.com/

It is a really beautiful and informative site for women with prolapse issues. I never knew how common this is! I have a pretty mild rectocele post-birth with Luca. I work as a produce department manager at a health food store and was lifting very heavy things pretty far into my pregnancy...I didn't realize how it could affect me, but I think that's when I compromised my pelvic floor. 

This site has lots of exercises and suggestions for pelvic floor health, and also a forum!

Thanks!! I have been back again since then and she gave me some more exercises for helping stuff move back up, I've been doing them and hoping they work :) I work as a nurse and worked up until 1-2 weeks before I had each of the kids, but also part of it is genetics, my grandma and mom both had hysterectomies when they were young (35 and 48) for prolapses. I would like to avoid surgery, but also my mom had a bunch of work done to her bladder to put it back and she is forever on a 30lb lifting restriction, which I literally CANNOT do, I would have to get a new job!!
