🤍 Your postpartum recovery is about more than just healing—it’s about rebuilding strength from the inside out.
After birth, your body goes through incredible changes, from hormonal shifts and uterine recovery to changes in your pelvic floor, core, hair, skin and breasts. Understanding what’s happening can help you approach recovery with confidence and patience.
Here’s a pelvic floor exercise that’s suitable from 6 weeks postpartum (or when you’ve been cleared by your healthcare professional) to help you reconnect with your pelvic floor and support your recovery.
✨ This gentle exercise can help:
• Strengthen and tone your pelvic floor
• Support bladder control
• Improve core stability
• Support your postpartum recovery
Remember, every postpartum journey is different. Healing takes time, so be kind to yourself and celebrate the small steps along the way.
If you experience pain, heaviness, or symptoms that concern you, stop the exercise and seek advice from your GP, midwife, women’s health physiotherapist or another qualified healthcare professional.
