Hi Rommy (and to anyone else reading this!). I saw the physio for my back last night and she told me I'm not doing my pelvic floor exercises right as I'm using my abs too much (she specialises in pregnancy issues). She's going to do an ultrasound on me in the next couple of weeks to check my pelvic floor and show me how to do it right.

When we practice pelvic floor exercises in my aqua aerobic classes, we start by holding them for 5 seconds, then 10 then 15 seconds - only if we can do it.

Just had a look at Jackrose's response and that all sounds pretty good!!
