🗻Coning or Doming is when we see a little “peak” or “cone” in the abdominal wall. This indicates lack of pressure management or lack of integrity anterior wall meaning weakness in the tissues or stretching in the tissues.
〰️This change in the tissues happens during pregnancy as mom’s abdominal wall and fascia layers are being stretched. This ab separation is also known as diastasis recti and happens in 💯of pregnancies.
🤓Research by Mota et al in 2014 state that At gestational week 35 there was a prevalence of DRA of 100%. 100% so don’t freak out. You are NORMAL!
When does it happen?âť“:
🛋 it can happen while getting up from a couch during pregnancy or postpartum.
How to fix it âť“.
Use your arms to help you get up OR turn sideways to get up.
@physio.rx prefers you use arms so you are still training your core but decreasing the pressure through your linea alba where the ab separation occurs.
