The first two weeks after a vaginal birth is a really critical healing period for the pelvic floor and perineum. When done right, it will set you up for a more successful, faster recovery, and eventual rebuilding of your abdomen, pelvic floor and overall physical health. Learn about the R.I.C.E.+E. principle to optimize healing.

These are my 5 favourite exercises to do early postpartum. Waiting for the six-week discharge appointment to begin rebuilding is not optimal for healing. These exercises get you started (as soon as you are ready!) on rebuilding from the inside out after birth.
