Coming Back to Life Postpartum
8 months ago my body did an incredible thing. There’s no denying that. I love it for what it did and am so proud.
But after I had my baby there was a long time period where I didn’t know how I would get back to my active lifestyle.
The scheduling. The energy. The commitment. It felt (and still sometimes does feel) impossible.
I love exercise so much and felt mentally lost without it while my body healed and while I figured out our new schedule. I felt trapped in this new weak body with this new busy life. When I finally got to go on my first long walk, just me and Vonn, I cried.
But as the months have passed, I’ve figured it out more and more. I’ve snuck it in. I’ve made it work. It’s not a perfect routine yet (idk if it ever will be!), but day by day I feel more ME.
If you’re in the thick of it right now, hang on. It gets better!
