After taking a 9-month hiatus from working out, I'm finally back on the bandwagon!
My current body state is defo not how I'd like it to be. Ive always been active, even through my entire pregnancy. So this 9 months of slacking really made me feel quite lousy, physically and mentally. I feel lethargic all the time, and i literally feel my muscles weakening away, especially after pregnancy, child birth and breastfeeding, my posture and alignment is completely off.
So, i'm really proud of myself for working out 8 times in the last 8 days! Really deserve a big pat on my back! All thanks to u @minshanlai for being my workout buddy and for recommending the gym. I love our enthusiasm! We mustn't let this blazing fire and determintation die down k! Lol!
See you at Yoga HIIT class tmr!

It's been stressful being a mother...maybe a little too much for me. Since young, I've never wanted anything this much. I'm not ambitious, never knew what i wanted to be. Never yearned to be famous. Never cared about good grades. Cared more about being happy than being rich. But to have my own family, this, i cared a lot for. i thought i was gonna be natural at it. I underestimated what it takes to be a good mother. i am too hard on myself, bcos i had high expectations of how i will be.
Thank you @misskhong for the reminder. I will learn to strike a balance. Other than being Layla's mother, i am still Sheila Sim. I will slowly implement my self-love routine back into my life. Although having a 6 weeks old who refuses to nap in the afternoon, it is hard trying to schedule anything in. It is hard to even be emotionally stable on some days.
But i will keep trying. It is important to keep my physical and mental wellbeing in check. I'm glad I've been given the green light to exercise after 6 weeks. Thank you @thebettermovementstudio for a very gentle but super effective postnatal session. I needed to reconnect so badly with my body. Pregnancy, delivery and fourth trimester... my body went through so much but i never had the time and mind space to reconnect with it and help it heal. When @thejulinahalim got me to breathe into my pelvic floor space and try to squeeze my abdomen in. I swear it took me a few moments to find that space.
Postnatal care is so crucial, far more important than prenatal care. I'm determined to get my strength and stamina back. Slowly but surely!
What is my trick and shortcut to a healthy body? Exercise!

As I inch closer to my due date, my back is starting to ache from #babyWooLaLa exponential weight gain. I'm starting to get water retention in my legs and feet. I'm constantly feeling hot and sweaty, severely dehydrated even with 3l of water intake everyday. My hair is limp and weak (that luscious hair during pregnancy thing DID NOT AT ALL happen for me). I feel tired, but can't maintain my sleep well at night.
Exercise really helps me feel better! I missed swimming the whole of last week and was feeling uncomfortable all over. Today's swim is such a treat! So glad i manage to do my usual 10 laps before it started to pour! On top of swimming, I've now also included once a week pilates session with @thebettermovement and trekking. I recently rediscovered the beauty of Botanic Gardens, so will likely take my mom for a trek sometime this week!
#34 weeks into the pregnancy already! So proud that i manage to stay active the whole time. I'm sure all of this will help with my c-sect postnatal recovery!
