Pregnant? No... Postpartum! 🤱🏼
One of the most common comments I get on @ourfitfamilylife is: “I’m 4 month postpartum and I still look pregnant, please help!” 👉🏼Following the birth of your baby, there a huge space that’s unoccupied in your tummy. This space will be instantly filled by your organs 🙈Your pelvic floor and abs are stretched so your organs will sag downward toward your vagina and forward to your diastasis recti. Thank you gravity!! (Take a look at this picture!)
🤔Why aren’t new Moms taught safe ab rehabilitation exercises and how to protect their pelvic floor, back and abs while breastfeeding, how to sit up in bed safely, pick up something on the floor, pick up baby in the crib, pushing a stroller with proper posture or carry a baby optimally... !? ➡️Returning home with all this information we could avoid chronic back pain, Diastasis Recti, Mommy Tummy and pelvic floor issues common with many new Mamas... It’s very frustrating to see that many of us end up with severe Diastasis Recti that could have healed right after birth with the correct guidance!
What was your experience?
😘The next post is a video with exercises you can do as soon as baby arrives!!
