Will getting out of bed wrong make your diastasis larger?
Yes, absolutely!
I’ve been treating this condition for 30 years now and one thing I know for sure is that if you come straight up from a back lying position it will make your diastasis larger. Coming straight up out of a back lying position is called a jack knife and is the worse this you can do for both your diastasis and your back.
Watch the video on how to get out of bed the right way:
The best way to get up out of a back lying position is to first engage your transverse muscle by thinking of bringing your belly button to your inner spine. Then bend your knees. Keeping your head on the bed and continuing to hold your transverse in, log roll your body on your side and then use your hands to bring you to a seated position. Again holding your transverse muscle in the whole time.
