After going through nine months of pregnancy and seeing your belly, your butt and your thighs get fuller than your used to you might start thinking about postpartum exercises.
Having a baby changes your body and although you do lose quite a bit of the baby fat after giving birth most women find it difficult to lose the last 10, 15 or 20 pounds.
Starting an exercise routine after pregnancy can be easy and fun.
The main thing is to just start doing something.
Putting baby in the stroller and taking a nice long stroll every day can be your first step to getting your pre pregnancy body back.
While pregnant you ate healthy and it is important to continue to do that.
Having healthy snacks readily available to eat is another easy step to take to get your butt back in your pre pregnancy jeans.
Eating any kind of fresh fruits or vegetables are better than any pre packaged, processed, full of ingredients that are hard to pronounce snack food.
Making the choice to eat healthy and start postpartum exercises will bring you closer to your before baby body.
One of the best exercises to firm up your hips, thighs and butt is the squat.
Simply stand with your feet apart, directly under your hips, your arms out in front of you for balance.
Tighten your belly, bend your knees as if you're going to sit down keeping your weight on your heels and then straighten your legs and come back up.
It may be hard to do at first, but this is an excellent exercise.
Eventually you want to be able to get your thighs parallel to the floor.
You can get your butt back in shape and lose the left over baby bulge by doing postpartum exercises and eating healthy.
Just enjoy your baby and remember it took nine months to put the weight on so don't be discouraged you will get your shape back.
