Posture and the Bump: Standing, Sitting and Carrying Well

Your body is doing something extraordinary, and it deserves to move with ease. Posture and the Bump is a gentle, practical guide to standing, sitting and carrying well through every stage of pregnancy and early parenthood. In clear, compassionate language, Sybil Trelawny Pennington explains how your centre of gravity shifts, why old posture habits no longer fit, and how to find your own neutral line without rules or rebukes. You will learn small, real-world changes: how to set up a chair you do not dread, how to lift a toddler or a car seat without twisting, how to sleep, walk and feed with less strain, and how to care for your pelvic floor and core before and after birth. This is not a perfectionist programme, and it is not a substitute for your own care team. It is permission to rest often, ask for help, and listen to your body, with clear red flags that tell you exactly when to call your midwife or doctor. Whatever your birth or feeding journey, this book helps you stand tall in the body you have right now. Part of The Pregnancy Companion Library.
