Welcome to the Farr Fitness' C-Section Saturdays.
As I have mentioned before I will be using Saturdays to discuss, teach, and learn about C-Section recovery for athletes. Be prepared, some of the information that we discuss will be graphic, but I assure you that I will do my best to cover each topic with the grace of the true southern lady that I am. With that being said lets jump in!
So, we spend a lot of time talking about C-section recovery, but recovery from birth in general is very hard. Almost every woman wonders at some point how to get rid of the baby weight. That really depends on your fitness prior to pregnancy and during your pregnancy. So, assuming that you were healthy prior to getting pregnant, how much weight is appropriate to gain during a pregnancy? This info-graphic does a very good job of explaining where the "baby weight" comes from.
Ideally you won't gain more than 35 pounds. However, I want to make it very clear that no matter much weight you put on during your pregnancy you can still lose it. Giving birth is incredibly hard on your body, but it doesn't mean that you can't get fit afterwards.
