Early Postpartum Stretches

Workout Type: Early Postpartum

Level: Beginner- Gentle

Impact: Zero

Exercise Before the 6 Week Checkup

We advise you to wait at least 6-8 weeks after having a baby before beginning any strength or cardio exercises. However, days with a newborn are long. Repetitive care-taking tasks can take their toll on the joints. These are our favorite stretches to provide relief to mothers who do a lot of sitting, feeding and cuddling. Please be mindful of any stitches or injuries when you stretch.

    Why did you become a pre/ postnatal exercise specialist?

    After working in a physical therapy clinic I very quickly became aware of how underserved the pre/
    postnatal community was. Women who were trying to conceive, pregnant, and postpartum were
    seeking out help and guidance in navigating their motherhood journey. The healthcare professionals
    did not have the time or resources to be able to provide them the one-on-one attention they needed.
    Being able to empower women and help support them through their journey is something that I could
    only have dreamed of. The Lotus Method has allowed me to help women not feel alone through this
    challenging time in their lives, and I love being able to continue supporting them!

    What inspires you the most about our clientele of
    badass women?

    Their priority to take care of themselves! Our clients run the world, from stay at home moms to CEO’s
    these women’s schedules are packed! Yet they still prioritize taking the time to invest in themselves.
    Literally running from a meeting straight into an exercise circuit is not uncommon for our mom’s. They
    carve out an hour to focus on their strength, their mental health, and their happiness!

    If you had to listen to one song on repeat for the
    rest of your days – what would it be?

    How can I just choose one! River by Leon Bridges or Ritual Union by Little Dragon.
