Moms and soon to be moms are typically given the same blanket statements from the day they confirm pregnancy to that 6-8 week post birth doctor visit. We’re often told during pregnancy to listen to your body and do what you’ve always done. Depending on age and medical history we’re again placed in categories such as “high risk” and sent on our merry ways.
As Pregnancy & Postpartum Athleticism Coaches our goal is not to place you in categories or even tell you what to do. Every body, every woman is an individual. We have different goals, some of us have symptoms or potential symptoms to consider. Our goal is to educate, empower, and most of all support you through your pregnancy and postpartum. When we are injured, we take the time to rehab. How about after giving birth? So much changes in the body during pregnancy AND labor! It doesn't matter how you delivered, it is trauma to the body. 6-8 weeks after birth, you might be ready to resume normal activities but what is your strategy? It's more than just slowly getting back to your routine of running or circuit training, CrossFit, Cardio, Yoga, etc. There's a real process involved and we're here to set you up for success not set you back.
