Best Pilates exercises to do postpartum
  Once mums have given birth, whether vaginal or via c-section, they often ask what is the best exercise to start building back their strength.

Do you burn more calories on your period?
  For some, periods feel like the body is going through the wringer.

It’s the exact same body they had, it just took on a whole new role and form.   And secondly I tell them never to ‘punish’ their...
