So much change to your body
I have had the pleasure to meet and chat to Kylianne Farrell - Mumma Miracle and Movement Mentor from Karratha, Western Australia, and have read some of her articles hearing insights about movement and how it helps in the postnatal recovery process in a new way. Kylianne blends her professional insights from her training as a Counsellor with her movement training, together with her personal journey and experiences in becoming a mumma. Kylianne shares from her most recent experience of the birth of her second daughter, with her blog post on strengthening and evolving post baby.

Postnatal Exercise Guidelines
We often refer to these but if you are new to the newsletter, we don't recommend that you head straight back into strong core work post birth, or higher impact exercise, until your pelvic floor restores and can match the level of pressure or resistance put on it through exercises.
You can make an appointment with your physio (Dianne if you are from PMFP) who works in women's health, to check your level of pelvic floor and core control before you build your program levels.
