Your Belly Postpartum - What to Do?
Congratulations! You just had a baby and your body went through some amazing changes.
Now the question is what about your belly postpartum? How can you get back your pre pregnancy shape? The answer is, by doing some belly postpartum exercises.
It would be wonderful if just wishing for your squishy jelly belly to disappear would make it go away but unfortunately that won't happen.
Still don't be too hard on yourself, you will get your before baby body back with a little bit of determination.
So what is a great exercise to start with? The pelvic tilt.
The pelvic tilt is not only great for getting rid of your left over baby belly it also strengths your lower back as well and being a new Mom you're going to need a strong back.
There's lots of bending, picking up baby, carrying baby and all the baby paraphernalia that needs to be lugged around where ever you go.
Amazing how much a little baby needs.
How to do the Pelvic Tilt: Lay on your back on the floor with your knees bent pointing up to the ceiling.
Make sure your back is flat against the floor and push your pelvis toward the ceiling tightening your abdomen muscles as you do this.
Try and hold this position for a count of 8 or 10 and then relax, slowly lowering back to floor.
Eventually you want to be able to do between 10 and 20 pelvic tilts in a row and then more but for now just getting started is fantastic.
Keep in mind that you did just have a baby and it will take time to firm up and lose your left over baby belly.
The addition of a baby into your life brings many new challenges, it can be overwhelming, just relax and enjoy your new role as "Mommy" and have fun with your baby.
Don't be discouraged if you can't fit into your pre pregnancy jeans just yet, it took 9 months to gain the weight it will take some time to get back in shape just continue to exercise and enjoy that little one.
