Postpartum pelvic floor exercises and general fitness
Hi all 🙂 I have always been an active person but through pregnancy and afterwards I’ve pretty much stopped as I have found it all too daunting not knowing what’s safe and unsafe etc.
Does anyone have any suggestions on where I can find some good pelvic floor exercises as well as some good postpartum fitness exercises.
Even better- if anyone is near Privett who’d like to be my fitness partner, let me know! 🏃🏼♀️

@Samantha-Leigh Rautenbach - I feel exactly the same! I’m 17 weeks PP and still really struggling with how weak my body is and how achey I am from just looking after my baby. I’ve been seeing a physio and just started doing Pilates which has really helped with core strength. I can also share my peloton referral link which I think gives you 30/60 days free access to the digital membership - they have specific post partum collections of classes - spin, strength, yoga, stretching etc. You just stream the classes on your phone - anything from 5 to 60 min long classes - so super accessible and can all be paused if you need to stop to look after your baby.

They say you can start exercise after 6 weeks pp. I'm in the same boat as you, wish you were nearer would love an exercise buddy. Some1 mentioned this lady is really good, I've copied her Instagram account if you're on there https://www.instagram.com/karenpostrehab?igsh=d2JuMzZzdWpnMXYy
