Postpartum Butt

#pelvicfloor #postpartum body #mombodypositive I love my body for carrying that huge baby! It’s a year postpartum and I’m gentle with my body/workouts..but I’m not ashamed of where I’m at right now at all.

I am easy and gentle with getting to my pre-baby goals. Some women are incredible and can just whip their bodies into shape. I work 10-12hrs/5days a week and have this beautiful baby and family needs. So, I’m down for being gentle on my body while still taking steps to better fitness.

What have you mommas done to get fit in postpartum? PS I’m not the mama to judge 😂 too much good to talk about!

2024/12/30 Edited to

After giving birth, many women experience drastic changes in their bodies, commonly referred to as the postpartum body. This period can be challenging, but it's essential to adopt a mindset of acceptance and love towards your body. A significant component of postpartum recovery involves strengthening the pelvic floor, which supports urinary control and improves overall core strength. Gentle exercises like Kegels can help restore pelvic floor integrity, while moderate cardio and strength training allow for gradual improvement in fitness levels. It's crucial to listen to your body and engage in activities that feel good for you. Nutrition also plays a vital role; focusing on a balanced diet rich in whole foods can help rejuvenate your energy levels. Remember, self-compassion and patience are key during this transformative time in your life. Reach out to other new moms to share stories, challenges, and successes; you're not alone on this journey, and together you can encourage one another to embrace the beauty of motherhood.

I literally do lunges around the house when getting ready and squats when in place like folding clothes of washing dishes! Go for walks with baby on weekends and I found a park close by the house with machines that use self weight!

Good! You shouldn't be. 🥰
