📲Swipe to learn how to self-check for abdominal separation AFTER six weeks postpartum!

If you’re unsure whether your separation has closed and you jump back into traditional core work without proper rehabilitation, you could risk damaging your core muscles in their separated position.🚫

IMPORTANT: It can take up to six weeks for your uterus to contract back into your pelvis, so it’s BEST to wait until after that time to perform this check.

If you find that you have more than two fingers of separation after six weeks, it’s crucial to rehabilitate any abdominal separation before diving into “traditional” core exercises like crunches, sit-ups, or planks.💥
