The first year right after you delivered a baby is the dangerous period for marriage. Because the changes of getting frigidity is higher after a woman gives birth. After delivery, the libido is low hence you will have very low sex drive, plus the vaginal wall tissue tends to becomes less elastic or loose that is affecting the quality of marriage life.
Left side is the kid, right side is the husband, one side was the beautiful, curvy sexy self and on the other side is the blown up body, plain-Jane mommy. Under the cloud of postpartum depression it will make you wonder if you have made a good choice….
By right, a new mom shouldn’t have only paid attention of taking care of the baby and making sure the husband is happy. The most important thing is being nice to yourself!
Why new moms needs to practice yoga ?
1. Restore joint health
The weight of the baby will cause the Lumbar lordosis, pelvis-tilting forward and also gives you diastasis recti abdominis. All these are transformation from a hot chick to big mama.
