Pre & Post Natal



Having a baby is meant to be one of the most exciting times of your life.
And it is!
But trust me, as a two time Mum, it's also one of the scariest.
You are entering unknown territory.
Everyone has advice - even those people who haven't had a baby!!
​
Years ago, the advice when pregnant was DON'T EXERCISE!
​
Nowadays the advice has, thank goodness, changed and women who continue to exercise during pregnancy and lactation at the same level
as they did pre-pregnancy experience many benefits.
Here are just a few...
​
Reduced weight gain
Improved circulation
Reduced swelling
Better self-image
Reduced swelling
Reduced labour pain
Easier, shorter labours
Reduced risk of lower back pain
Quicker post-natal recovery
Increased stamina
Increased energy
Increased metabolic rate
Reduced anxiety
​
The list of benefits is apparently endless...
​
and leads you to ask ..
​
​
WHY WOULDN'T YOU EXERCISE?!
​
​
Maintaining your fitness during your pregnancy will help you feel in control of the momentous changes that your body is going through - both during your pregnancy and after.
I was able to exercise right up until the day I gave birth with both my children and felt as though I kept control of myself at a time when it is easy to feel as though the bump might be taking the front seat.
​
As a mother and qualified Pre & Post Natal specialist I can help guide you through your pregnancy, giving you an exercise and nutritional plan that will take you from the days before anyone knows that you are even trying to the period after the birth when you are juggling your newborn and the desire to "get back to normal"
​
I look forward to working with you
