A little life update from me 🤍
It’s been a month since I’ve posted, and if I’m honest, recovery from my C-section has been harder and slower than I expected, between healing, sleepless nights, and exclusively breastfeeding, my body has been working overtime.
I have so much admiration for all mums, and even more appreciation now for those who have experienced emergency C-sections alongside breastfeeding and caring for a newborn.
Recovery really is a journey, and I’m learning to be patient with my body.
I’m still sore and only managing shorter walks, but I’m embracing the slower pace and soaking up every cuddle.
One thing that has surprised me is how much I’m loving this newborn stage.
At 36, I wasn’t sure what to expect, but caring for my little boy feels so natural to me. I have so much love to give, and I’ve been incredibly fortunate that breastfeeding has come naturally too.
Of course, I miss my gym family and seeing all of your faces.
I hope you’re all staying active in whatever way feels right for you in your season of life.
I’ll continue to share more of my recovery journey when I can and keep you updated on my return.
Thank you so much for your patience, love and support as I navigate this beautiful new chapter.
And to every mum, wherever you are in your journey: you are amazing.
If no one has told you today, you’re doing an incredible job, and you’re never alone. ❤️
Hopefully we will be catching up over an iced coffee very soon! ☕😃
