To all you mummas who had to go to appointments & scans on your own due to covid. Who went into labor and had to stay in hospital alone before they were allowed company. Who haven’t been able to see friends and family or introduce their new arrivals in the usual way. Who might not have had the amount of support every new parent needs, due to the restrictions. Just know how truly strong, brave & amazing you are! This year might not have gone exactly to plan but that doesn’t take anything away from the blessings of your new arrival.
Growing another being inside of your own is incredible! Your body adapts in so many ways to accommodate and support your pregnancy, birth & recovery. Many of us don’t know what’s actually happening inside of our bodies throughout pregnancy. We notice our symptoms and see the physical changes, but how many of you know why these are happening? Or how our body then heals and recovers post-partum?
Understanding exactly how, when, and why your body is changing, is not only reassuring (when, yes that does happen to everyone!) but gives you the power to use that knowledge, to have your best possible prenatal and antenatal experience.
THERE ARE LOADS OF WAYS YOU CAN HELP PREPARE YOURSELF FOR EACH STAGE OF YOUR JOURNEY INTO MOTHERHOOD.
Being a pre and post-natal specialist is more than just helping women exercise before and after having a baby. It is about providing knowledge and support for your all-round well-being. That’s help with managing symptoms, what to/what not to eat and drink, exercise, cores & pelvic floors, do’s and don’ts, tips and advice, what you can be doing to help yourself and your baby along the way & so much more.
Get in touch if you have any questions or would like to know more about Prenatal or Antenatal personal training. Feel free to share with new mums who might need to hear they are doing a great job.
