"A lot of you guys have asked about my workout routine after giving birth, so I thought I would share how it has been for me during and since pregnancy.
During my pregnancy my doctor advised me not to do any physical exercise and heavy lifting, because the baby sat a little low. This was definitely challenging for me since I’ve always been really active and has used exercise to de-stress.
That meant I didn’t do any form of exercise for the entirety of my pregnancy.
Recovery after giving birth was something I took very seriously. It’s maybe the first time I really listened to my body and its limitations. The word slow was a huge keyword for me.
I did absolutely nothing the first 6 weeks other than trying to give my body as much rest as possible with a newborn. Once I was cleared by the doctor to start working out again I still didn’t just jump straight into it.
I made sure to see a pelvic floor specialist and post birth chiropractor first to get double confirmation that everything was fine. That I spend another few weeks with before I personally felt ready to workout.
Around week 10-11 I slowly started exercising again. I went to a Pilates instructor twice a week that specializes in pregnancy recovery. She really helped me slowly getting familiar with the feelings of my muscles again. Especially reconnecting with my abs again and making sure to engage the muscles correctly. I went there for about 3 months.
After all of this I feel like my body is ready to start working out like I used to and very slowly putting more and more weight in, but it’s for sure a slow process and I’m not even close to be where I used to be strength wise but that is totally okay and I feel more confident in my body and so amazed by what the body is capable of and most importantly it gave me my little girl."
