I need to know how I can be sure I am doing Kegel exercises properly. I have had 3 kids. The youngest is 8 years old now. I am 34 years old and I know my pelvic muscles are not as strong as they used to be. I have seen some different items that can be used to help to strengthen these muscles, but I do not want to waste money and time if I can do it myself.

I've been doing Kegel exercises for about two weeks now, and lately I've been feeling some soreness. Could it be from Kegels? Does that mean they're working?
