If things have gotten a little loose after having children, how do you tighten them again, if kegel exercises don't work?

I thought this was a myth that you were looser after. I never did Kegel's & didn't have this problem at all - 2 kids later...

Have you mentioned this to your ob/gyn?

I was afraid of this...but it seems it's the same if not better

I asked my ob/gyn about it, he said to do kegel exercies and things should go back to normal. But I've never been able to do them. A friend suggested a gel I could buy at the local sex store that's supposed to make things tighter, but it's really not that big of a problem to be putting strange gels in... places. I figured I'd ask if anyone else has this same problem and what they did about it.

I don't have kids yet, but NO ONE should be without their kegels, it's the only exercise I do regularly! Chat Icon

This should help you! Chat Icon

Um -- I've never used it --- but I've hosted a passion party and have been to a few myself and they make something called "Tighten Up" which is supposed to work great....

Also they sell the balls to put -- um --- inside Chat Icon and they are supposed to help you do kegels properly so that you can get more out of them. Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon

After 2 kids, I have never had a problem either. In the beginning it was "looser" but then it tightened right back up after a few months.
