Lauren had a C-Section that was not planned. She planned to exercise right after a vaginal delivery. However, she had to recover from surgery and could not start working out again right away. This is a great example about being flexible when thinking about your birth plan. Sometimes our plans change for the safety of mom and baby.

Lauren is a fitness instructor and was in shape before her pregnancy. She said that her abdominal muscles changed after pregnancy and the C-Section. Now her abs are not the same as they were before. She has to work with a changed body, but she encourages moms that it is possible to get back into shape. She began to walk and incorporate cardio after her eight week visit with her doctor. She slowly began low impact cardio classes.

Then she began pilates again. It took Lauren 6 to 8 months before she began to feel her abdominal muscles again. She is now 15 months postpartum and says that she feels normal again. She cautions women to not compare themselves to other women, keep working, and it will come back. It is important to give yourself grace.

Tips: be balanced, be slow, and don’t expect your body to be exactly the same as before (but you can get it to a place that you are happy).

Exercise tips: start with basic pelvic tilts, basic plank on knees starting at 3 times per week.

Lauren recommends the Whole30 (cut out all processed foods) for weight loss. She lost her baby weight and feels great.

Snacks: apple slices with raw almond butter, almonds, and other nuts.
