Delivered 3 months back and honestly my tummy still feels so loose, nothing fits me properly. I'm not in a hurry but thoda toned feel karna hai again. What worked for you mommies after baby?
Personally, I just wore an abdominal belt for a few weeks because my mother suggested it, and went for short evening walks. It took me almost a year to feel like myself again. Everyone's body heals differently, so I just took it very slow.
I'm planning to start gentle walking and prenatal yoga once my doctor gives me the green light after delivery. Right now, I'm just focusing on staying active within safe limits. Please don't start any heavy workouts without your gynac's clearance, especially after a C-section.
Since I had thyroid issues during pregnancy, my weight loss was quite slow and difficult. I had to get regular thyroid check-ups post-delivery to make sure my hormone levels were fine before trying to lose weight. Definitely get your blood tests done first and follow up with your doctor.
After going through a long IVF journey, I realized our bodies did a miracle by bringing a baby into this world. Please be gentle with yourself, the extra weight is just a sign of the beautiful life you nurtured. Take your time to heal emotionally and physically, shape can wait.
For shaping up, I drank warm ajwain water daily ghar pe and did very light stretching after 2 months. But please listen to your body first, and if you have any severe back pain or incision healing issues, consult your doctor. Don't rush into hard exercises.
