About Author

I am a Pre/Postnatal Exercise Specialist who believes in healing the body through specialized movements and nutrition. I studied nutrition and physical therapy in college and went on to become a Pilates instructor.

So why then, with all of my training, did I have so much trouble postpartum?

In all of my studies, postpartum care was not discussed. As a new mom, I didn't realize the trauma my body would go through because of the birthing process. It wasn't until after my first baby arrived that I attempted to quickly bounce back in just six weeks. As a result, I ended up in specialized physical therapy to work scar tissue out and strengthen my pelvic floor. I have never experienced anything so awkward and shocking.

I don't want you to go through what I went through. I'm putting together everything I've learned to help you heal, nourish your body and manage weight during and after baby!
