In the early weeks, perform these VERY gentle exercises when your new baby is napping. NONE of these gentle breathing, posture, and core awareness exercises should cause any pain. WEEK 1 does not mean that you need to begin these the first week after giving birth. Begin in your own time. Some start as soon as 5-7 days after birth and that is safe considering how gentle these exercises are. That being said, for many, the schedule, family, breast-feeding, and many other new baby circumstances will have you starting a bit later. That is ok! The purpose of these exercises is to spend 5-7 minutes reconnecting to your posture and your core while your baby is taking one of their many mini naps over the course of the day.
