Mominatrix

Shrinking your echo chamber.

By Kristen Chase

I think everyone is different. After one child and extremely long, difficult labor, I went completely back to normal. Yes, I did a lot of kegels but honestly what it took was time. I've heard that my experience is normal after one--but the 2nd and so on really change us permanently. I dunno, think of other similar muscles...I mean my throat has not become permanently stretched from too big a bite of chicken. Nor have the sphincters in my stomach or end of the intestine from too big a meal, etc. I think these things just snap shut. Great topic!
