Your Baby & Toddler

HIPS, THIGHS AND BUM

-

YOUR PROBLEM

Notorious problem areas for women, the hips, thighs and bum also take strain during and after pregnancy. Mostly this is because nutrition and activity levels tend to change (for the worse) during pregnancy, and so you put on weight in these areas.

THE SOLUTION

Post-baby weight can take a long time to shed, so don’t aim to be back in those skinny jeans too quickly. y Drastic exercise and diet plans can be very detrimenta­l, and don’t forget all the work that your body did to carry your baby for you! Stick to a healthy, balanced diet and do exercises that target multiple muscles, particular­ly in this area.
