My little one is a toddler now and so active, but I still feel the strength I got from prenatal yoga helped me recover so much faster postpartum. Definitely try it if your health allows, it's a blessing.
Before starting any exercises or wearing tight postpartum belts, please check with your gynac to ensure your internal stitches have healed completely. Doing heavy core exercises too soon can cause complications like diastasis recti. Your doctor will guide you on the safest postpartum recovery path.
I didn't stop completely, but limited coffee and focused more on my daily morning walks and light yoga after my doctor gave the green signal. Keeping the body active and hydrated worked wonders for my conception journey.
My app suggested drinking at least 3 liters of water daily to actually reduce water retention! It really works because it flushes out excess sodium. Try tracking your water intake for a week.
Mint water is such a great refreshing drink after my light prenatal walks. My trainer suggested it to stay hydrated, and it really keeps acidity away.
