One of the biggest issues after childbirth is the mommy pooch – the bulging tummy often makes people feel insecure about their own bodies. New mothers, who were enjoying their baby bumps a few weeks ago, often feel self-conscious about their rounded abdomens.
Although a woman’s body does not bounce back to its original form right after childbirth, society somehow expects this miracle to happen overnight, making her feel frustrated and disconnected from her own body. Speaking about the same subject, digital content creator Nidhi Tyagi recently took to Instagram to share her journey and a few exercises that helped her address her mommy pooch.
If you Google this question, you will get multiple answers, but the right time is when you have healed, and your doctor approves you starting with baby steps at home before hitting the gym with full force.
“Some women take up to three months and feel normal! Some can take six months, nine months, twelve months, and even two years for their body to stop aching and actually feel normal,” said Nidhi.
