Original caption
❌ STOP DOING THESE if you want to get rid of your mommy pouch ❌ Not all ab exercises are postpartum-friendly. If you have diastasis recti, these movements can increase pressure on your core and make your mommy pouch look worse. The good news? There are safe alternatives that actually help reconnect your deep core, support your pelvic floor, and flatten your belly. ➡️Comment “PART 2” for the Do’s 😎 #mommypouch #diastasisrecti #postpartum #postpartumfitness #deepcore
