Undoubtedly, February was an extra exciting time for Brittany Mahomes, the Kansas City Chiefs Current co-owner alongside her husband, Patrick Mahomes. Patrick and the team brought home a big win from Super Bowl LVIII. Ever since, the couple has stayed busy keeping up with multiple publicity and celebratory events.

Brittany Mahomes Warns Importance Of Pelvic Health

Notably, Brittany Mahomes shares two children with Patrick: Sterling, 3, and Bronze, 1. But childbirth can come with its challenges.

On Brittany‘s Instagram Stories, she shared “Just your daily reminder: Once you have kids please take care of your pelvic floor.” Then she adds, “Seriously. From: A girl with a fractured back 🙂.” Although it isn’t a common injury, it can happen if the area is weakened with childbirth.

Uncommon, But Connected

While Brittany Mahomes’ injury is uncommon, it can happen. Even though Brittany maintained a steady workout and healthy diet, she still had additional strain on her body after giving birth to her two beautiful children. Reportedly, Yves-Richard Dole, MD, with Metropolitan OB/GYN, says this situation can occur. He says, “The pelvic floor is connected to the lower back, and each of the bones are connected together by a series of ligaments and tissue.” Undeniably, childbirth is a huge stressor on a mother’s body. Dr. Dole also says it can leave your pelvic floor unstable in the aftermath. Although she didn’t give many more details, it will be necessary for her to slow down for the time being and recover.
