Having a new baby is tiring and demanding for new mums.  In yummy mummies you work to your own level, all the exercises are easily adaptable so if you never exercised or feeling tired there are easy options of each exercise and vice verse if you want a harder option that is available if suitable. 

Babies are welcome so you can keep your new arrival close by and don't have to waste money on expensive child care. Everyone is in the same situation and sometimes they cry but quite often they just fall asleep.  It can be hard work watching mummy exercise!

Exercise Safety:

Postnatal women need to be aware that some factors from pregnancy still remain. 

High impact activities should be avoided for 5 months following the birth of a baby as you are more prone to injuries due an increase in flexibility due pregnancy hormones which remain.

High impact activates can also put unnecessary pressure on the pelvic floor which can increase your risk of suffering with a prolapsed.

High impact activities include running, high impact aerobics and boxercise.

Due to remaining flexibility stretches are only held for 8 seconds to avoid over stretching.

It is recommended that the condition of the abdominals are correctly checked by a suitable qualified person, to check for separation of the abdominals.  If a separation has occurred greater than 2 fingers crunches, planks and oblique work should be avoided until the abdominals have been suitably strengthened. 

Yummy Mummies are shown how to safely move from standing to sitting and vice versa to avoid putting unnecessary strain on the abdominals.
The classes are kept small so each person has individual attention.
