Delivered my baby about 3 months back and feeling so out of shape now. With the newborn I barely get any time for myself yaar. How did u all slowly get back to fitness postpartum?
Ghar ka khana khao aur thoda ghumna shuru karo. Drinking warm water with ajwain also helps digestion, but if you have any joint pain or back issue, please ask your doctor first.
I'm in my 2nd trimester and already wondering how I'll lose the baby weight later! Are others planning on joining post-natal fitness classes, or is simple walking enough?
Getting fit? I get my cardio by chasing my baby around and lifting them like a dumbbell! Give your body at least 6 months to recover before you try squeezing into those old jeans.
No need for expensive gym memberships, dear. Just cut down on sugar, eat regular home meals, and do some active walking in your neighborhood park or on the terrace while the baby is sleeping.
My mother suggested traditional post-delivery massage and tying a cotton cloth around the stomach which helped. But always trust your doctor's opinion before starting any core exercises or strict diets.
Be realistic about your timeline because managing work and a baby leaves very little exercise time. Just start with 15-20 minutes of brisk walking during baby's nap time and focus on portion control instead of complex diets.
I used a postnatal fitness tracker app that suggested starting with gentle pelvic tilts and short walks after 6 weeks. Logging my daily water intake and walking steps helped me stay on track without pushing my body too hard.
I delivered just 3 months ago and honestly, your body takes time to heal, so don't rush! Right now, I am only doing pelvic floor exercises and short daily walks, which feel very safe and refreshing.
