I started my sweat session with a walk with Samuel at 1pm then started @hollismtuttle class. I had to take a break halfway through to breastfeed but went back and finished then few hours later took @katie_fogelson ab class. Lesson:: just keep coming back to your sweat. It’s worth it. You are worth it. It’s now 4pm and I’m sitting still to eat and hydrate and play with Baldwin. #mirrormamas #thesweatlife #breastfeeding #14weekspostpartum

Mamas!!!! This is an example of me in my third trimester engaging my transverse abdominals aka TVA and pelvic floor. Im my fav @baobeimaternity bralette and bloomers. I’m a huge fan of pelvic floor health. Prioritize doing exercises to activate your TVA and pelvic floor muscles so they support you through pregnancy and continue your exercises postpartum. I highly recommend pregnant mamas to practice engaging their TVA without engaging their pelvic floor to prepare for pushing. When you push you want to be able to activate TVA AND relax pelvic floor muscles. If you have ?s slide into my DMS! #REPOST @baobeimaternity with Your body has a built-in support system 🤩 #prenatalcore

🎥 Check out Doula, Mirror Instructor & Fitness Pro @rachelenicks using her exhale to tap into her pelvic floor & TVA
