Peep the side abdominal muscle 😉and the belly button ( umbilical hernia)

Did I close the hernia? No

What I did was to modify movements, food +++ to reduce the intra abdominal pressure and strengthen her core and this reduced the organs that could bulge into the opening🙂. That's why her navel and hernia looks smaller

Did I close the Diastasis Recti? It's down to 1½ from 4 fingers 💃 and I will close it.

I'm currently taking clients for my January BBLB one on one post partum recovery, Diastasis Recti Repair and pelvic floor training plan.

Limited spots are available 👀👂

Your pelvic floor is connected to your shoulder🙆 Yes!

So, when your shoulder is tensed up, your pelvic floor is switched on.

A pelvic floor that's always switched on can lead to pelvic floor dysfunction like involuntary urine leaks when you jump, sneeze, laugh or cough, painful Intimacy, pelvic pain, constipation and frequent peeing urgency.

Some of the post partum challenges with your pelvic floor is connected to a tight pelvic floor and one of the causes is a constantly and most times unconsciously tensed shoulder.

Today, try and relax your shoulder.

Hernia is when there's an opening in your abdominal wall and your tissue or intestines bulges into the hole.

For post partum moms this is usually in the navel area and is called umbilical hernia.

You may or may not have a bulge at all times when you have an hernia.

If the opening in your abdominal wall is small, you may not have a large amount of tissue in it, so the bulge might not be noticeable.

Here are 5 things that can worsen the bulge:

🎯 Performing sit-ups or crunches

🎯 Straining on the toilet

🎯 Laying down

🎯 Coughing or vomiting

🎯 Lifting heavy objects

If you have a hernia, please see your Doctor.

Because pressure 😓. That's what caused your mummy tummy.

Doing planks and sit ups without proper assessment post partum can increase intra abdominal pressure and make your tummy bigger.

And also increase your waist pain.

You can do all these exercises, later, but for now focus on healing and repairing not further tearing.

You radiate when you're confident, healthy, aligned and happy

A lot of moms are in survival mode, all you can think about is getting through day.

With post Partum body challenges, the change children bring into your relationship, having to continually strive to excel in your business, career and at the same time be a good wife and amazing mom to your kids, it seems life wants to tear you apart.

You feel you have to sacrifice one thing in order to enjoy the life you want😟.

But, your life should not be an endless cycle of sacrifice and the ultimate burn out or loss of health, your relationship or success.

It's possible to create balance by developing the mental skill you need to survive and THRIVE in the body and Life you want.

I will be hosting a 2-day virtual well-being Workshop for mothers.

And it's for moms who are overwhelmed and exhausted with the way their life, health and relationship is going and want to create sustainable structures, habits and system to THRIVE.

If you would like that say yes in the comment section 😘
