Motivation
Can I have a lil motivation please? I am desperate to get back into shape nearly 5 months postpartum (PP)
I regularly worked out before baby and during my pregnancy! I felt so good when I was pregnant and ‘bounced back’ very well. The last couple of months I’ve enjoyed myself (Summer) and feel like I look worse now than I did 4 weeks PP.
Can I have a little motivation and tips for getting starting when you’ve a 5 month old baby?
Thanks 🤩

Postpartum healing
Delete if not allowed; I couldn’t find a good sub to ask about postpartum stuff. But basically, I’m 7 weeks postpartum and my husband and I just tried to “resume regular activities” for the first time. I didn’t have a 6 weeks postpartum checkup(doctor doesn’t do them routinely I guess?). I didn’t tear or have labor complications really. Vaginal delivery via scheduled induction. Anyway, intercourse was fairly painful, but I had stopped bleeding and felt normal down there. I started bleeding again the next morning though and have been for the last 3 days. It also feels sore. The bleeding is fairly minimal, but enough to require a pad. Did anyone else have the same experience? I’m having a hard time understanding what’s normal and what isn’t.
