E40. The realities of exercising with a new baby | Charlie Barker


Listen Later

The fourth trimester and motherhood encompass such huge changes in a woman’s life, yet we hardly spend any time planning for some of the challenges. Exercising in the postpartum has a whole heap of physical and psychological benefits but the realities of this with a new baby can be a challenge. Feeding your baby, navigating life as a new parent, sleep deprivation, a recovering body, good old mum guilt and lack of routine all creep in.

But what can we do, how can we negotiate all of this and what should exercise look like post birth?

On this week’s episode I am delighted to be joined by Pre- and Post-natal exercise expert and founder of Bumps and Burpees, Charlie Barker.

Charlie is the founder of Bumps & Burpees, the go-to community for new and expectant mums who want to stay strong, healthy, and happy throughout their pregnancies and into motherhood. As a qualified pre & post-natal exercise specialist Charlie is passionate about educating and empowering women at a time in their lives where things can feel daunting and living and breathing it all herself now has only made her desire to help others deeper.

Check out Charlie’s Instagram page and website below for more pre and postnatal exercise inspiration:

I must also mention that Charlie is also an author having released her brilliant book which you can also check out below:

But this year Charlie also became a mum to her gorgeous little boy Alfie and I am all ears on this episode as Charlie shares some of the realities of exercising with a new baby, the challenges and her tips to managing this time.
