Yes, this. I follow the founder on IG and her workouts are great, plus she has a very supportive attitude.

My first recommendation would be to find a Pelvic Floor PT, even if your obgyn does not think you *need* one, they can help you. In VA you have up to 20 PT appointments without the referral of a DR, so plenty.

Also check out deliciouslyfitnhealthy on instagram she's a certified postpartum trainer and has tons of free ideas on her profile, or you can get one of her programs.

I would avoid going to pilates or barre until you re-learn how to activate your pelvic floor.

I'm so sorry OP.

Check out getmomstrong.com - it's specifically for pregnant and postpartum mothers, focuses on strengthening your pelvic floor, and teaches you how to breath correctly so that you don't cause more damage.

Do some planks!! Forearm plank, straight arm plank, side planks, then a boat (yoga) in and out of a half-boat.

I do exercises and 1-2 minutes for a forearm plank, a straight arm plank, and then the boat pose. No, I don't have a 6 pack (kinda too girl for that) but I feel strong in my core.

I am very sorry for your loss

This. Highly recommend Fuse Pilates studio for private instruction. Mind the Mat is also excellent.

OP I do barre 4 days a week. In my class the prime focus is on core strength and balance, with specific exercises that focus on the pelvic floor. The specific barre I do is Barre3. I cannot say enough good things about the program. Not only is the workout effective, but it is such a warm and welcoming atmosphere with members at all different stages of their lives.

Very sorry for your loss, OP. Google stomach vacuums. I’ve been doing them for a few weeks now and definitely see and feel a difference.

Had a second trimester miscarriage last month and am getting back in shape. My midsection is particularly jiggly but, more than that, just feels weak/unstable. What are the best things I can do to improve abdominal and pelvic strength? Thanks.
