'I’d been working with cesarean mothers long before I was scheduled in for my own, with the birth of my twins in 2020 - here's what I learned and my tips for exercising after a c-section'
, I knew what to expect but soon learnt that what you pick up in textbooks is only half of the story and there is so much that we can learn from lived experience.
Here’s what you need to know about returning to exercise after a cesarean and the best exercises to help us reconnect with our core postpartum.During a cesarean birth, seven layers of skin, fat and body tissue are cut through to open up the uterus and deliver baby. Immediately after birth, you will be encouraged to walk within the first 24 hours. This is to ease gas pains, stimulate bowel movement and prevent blood clots from forming. However, this isn’t as easy as it sounds. I found my first walk very intimidating and it did nothing to boost my confidence in my recovery.
This is important to make sure the scar tissue doesn’t become too rigid or bind and stiffen around other internal body tissue. So, as soon as you feel comfortable and have been cleared by a medical professional, working on a few deep breaths throughout the day, keeping your shoulders relaxed and your pelvic floor relaxed can really help start our recovery process.
