3 Months postpartum

Three months postpartum.

26.6 miles run

69.1 miles walked (purposefully)

559,110 total steps taken

Three months exclusively breastfeeding a newborn.

And OVER 420oz milk donated/ sold to help feed three different babies. ❤️❤️❤️ (And over 180oz in the freezer ready to sell. 🫶🏻)

I am so proud of what my body has done in these three months.

And I'm not done, yet. 💪🏻🙌🏻

(Next, I'm adding weights to the mix. 🙈😅)

... Read moreNavigating the postpartum period can be challenging yet rewarding. For many new mothers, achieving fitness milestones is as important as the wellbeing of their newborn. At three months postpartum, it's crucial to engage in physical activities like running and walking to rebuild strength. This journey often includes breastfeeding, not just for the baby's nourishment, but also as an incredible commitment that can lead to generous milk donations. Many mothers find empowerment in sharing their journey through social media, creating communities of support for one another. It’s common for postpartum fitness enthusiasts to participate in groups, highlighting the #postbirthfitness and #weightlossafterbaby hashtags. These communities not only provide resources but also foster a sense of belonging that can alleviate the stress associated with the transition into motherhood. Embracing this phase of life involves balancing fitness goals with the demands of caring for a newborn. As mothers become stronger physically, they also cultivate emotional resilience, which is equally important during this time. Starting with bodyweight exercises and gradually adding weights can lead to even greater achievements in fitness as mothers prioritize their health while caring for their little ones. Remember, every step taken is a testament to your dedication and love.

3 MONTHS POSTPARTUM
They say, with age comes maturity. Well from my personal experience, I would absolutely agree with that. It’s something about my 30’s that make me feel so confident, so sexy, so alive, so me! I feel so free! I love life so much now. I appreciate the gift of life. Unlike before after giving birth.

Common Postpartum Mistakes
One common postpartum mistake is setting unrealistic expectations. Before giving birth, we often tell ourselves we’ll accomplish certain things—like losing 30 pounds in 3 months—but we forget that giving birth takes a huge toll on our bodies. It took 9-10 months to gain the weight, so it’s unrealis
