37 Weeks Pregnant BEST Belly Exercises! #doctor #health #pregnancy #mom #fyp #momlife #fitness #core

I don’t know who needs to hear this but you don’t need to be spending 30-60 min everyday in the gym or doing endless cardio, lifting, or fitness classes to prevent or relieve belly and pelvic floor issues!🙌⬇️

Yea, exercise should be about feeling good and being functional!✅

You want to be able to do all the things you love for as long as you can PAIN FREE & SYMPTOM FREE!✅

My second pregnancy has been mainly home workouts because I take care of my 20 month old during the week as a full time mom (I usually only am away from her to work a few hours on the weekends to treat patients in-person😅)

And I love it BUT I don’t have the time to spend hours at the gym like I used to so it’s all about doing the best exercises to help keep me healthy and happy!❤️

If you only have energy or time to do ONE exercise everyday then diaphragmatic breathing would be my number one recommendation especially if you are pregnant or postpartum!

I always give patients a home program that they can do in 5-15 min when they tell me they have kids, work, or just no time for exercise because you can still make changes and relieve issues making small daily changes (trust me I know living with IBS, Ulcerative colitis, and a hypertonic pelvic floor!)

That’s why I created The Belly Whisperer® Method AND The Pregnancy Prep & Postpartum Recovery Online Program ‼️⬇️

There are a lot of fear based behaviors and fear avoidance when it comes to exercise during pregnancy and postpartum recovery but evidence based research suggests that regular physical activity and exercise during pregnancy and pp is associated with many health benefits for the baby and mother! Benefits are:

✅maternal psychosocial well being
✅cardiovascular fitness
✅maintaining body mass
✅dec. risk of gestational hypertension
✅preeclampsia
✅gestational diabetes
✅dec. risk of C-section delivery, perineal tears, and instrumental delivery
✅increased pelvic floor muscle strength
✅dec. urinary incontinence
✅ reduced recovery time

Feel free to email or DM me to pick the best program for you!❤️

Who is excited to finally be in the home stretch of pregnancy?! We got this MAMAS!⬇️⬇️⬇️

Accurate. I hear so many women be surprised when I tell them I can hold my bladder after birthing 4 babies.

Ladies, this is the holy grail! Stop tolerating the leaks.
