The Postpartum Body: Healing, Hormones, and Hope with Dr. Maria Peñalver Gaspar & Ms. Jacqueline Hawker

Today we’re joined by not one, but two powerhouse guests from Mediclinic Middle East for a vital conversation on something every mother deserves to understand better — her postpartum body.

First, we have Dr. Maria Peñalver Gaspar, a Specialist Obstetrician and Gynaecologist, who brings a compassionate and clinical perspective to what truly happens to our bodies after birth — from physical recovery to hormonal changes, pelvic floor issues, and more.

Joining her is Ms. Jacqueline Hawker, a Senior Physiotherapist specialising in Women’s Health. She supports women on their journey of postpartum rehabilitation — from diastasis recti and pelvic floor dysfunction to restoring strength, movement, and confidence after delivery.

Together, Dr. Maria and Jacqueline are here to break the silence, bust the myths, and guide us through healing with honesty, knowledge, and hope.
