Holiday 👌🏼

Baby cuddles on my baby bump 🥹

When helping out is giving baby cuddles so their mum can carry on with the class…. Oh if I must 🤭. Yes, little one fell asleep on me as I verbally taught the mum and baby Pilates class 🫶🏼. The cuddle got cuter.

My job is great 👌🏼

Happy valentines all! ♥️

A reminder from this cutey that

♥️ YOU ARE LOVED
♥️ Keep being you
♥️ It’s YOU - your personality, your quirks, your laughter that this world needs.

And if you have a snotty nose or life is feeling snotty….rock it like Olive ✌️😂♥️

Have you heard of a Mummy MOT? ⬆️

Us mums don’t always give our bodies the credit and care that it’s due!

Our bodies have stretched, grown, adapted over 10 months, with hormones doing all sorts of thing whilst our little bubbas grow.

We then go through the biggest endurance event called vaginal delivery or a caesarean (not the ‘easy’ way out) which is a major surgery (7 layers of skin, fat, fascia, muscle, peritoneum, uterus and amniotic sac are carefully cut through or pulled apart) 🤯. I N C R E D I B L E.

Then, we have this gorgeous needy little bundle of joy that is only going to get heavier, whilst we recover and the GP 6 weeks check is typically very very basic (due to time limits I’m sure) BUT you mums NEED more.

The general standard of postnatal care really is just not good enough (soap opera box time) 🎤

And this is where the Mummy MOT comes in 💪 (swipe through the photos for more info).

****If you can’t afford private, try to self-refer to see a NHS pelvic health physio***

The next upcoming Pilates classes/blocks are all up ready for booking 💫

I cannot BELIEVE that there are only 2 full blocks left before baby 2.0 arrives 😮. Second time around is going so much quicker! Speaking of, we have our next scan today!

The last blocks ends 12/13 May and then there will be PAYG classes following depending on baby 2.0’s arrival 🤰.

The plan like last pregnancy will be similar in that I’ll be looking to have around 2.5/3 months off Pilates teaching before returning. We’ll see! 💕

Happy Monday from Belgium! 🇧🇪 🙌🏼

Reminder that there is no Pilates for this evening or tomorrow’s mums and baby’s Pilates as we will be heading back from our wonderful little break away.

Can definitely recommend Center Parcs De Haan ~ it had everything we’d need for a holiday with a 1 year old 🫶🏼 & would have liked to stay longer. I’m not wishing time away but definitely looking forward to when Olive is old enough to go down the flumes with me 😅💦.

Wouldn’t healthcare be so much better if all practitioners had the time & space for the above? ⬆️

It goes without saying that being listened to and being listened to WELL is what everyone desires.

❌ You shouldn’t feel fobbed off when it comes to your health

❗️ If you’re instincts are telling you that something else is going on then keep advocating for yourself or find another healthcare provider that will

❗️You should never feel like you’re just taking up time/making things up. It’s the doctors/physios/nurses etc. job to piece what you’re telling us together, make sense of it & explain it to you. If we don’t know, then another colleague or health practitioner will (that’s also the job of your healthcare provider - to point you in the right direction).

👏 Take this post as an encouragement to not give up on your health & if it’s injury related & you need someone to really listen to you, then myself and my colleagues at certainly will. 👂
