Discover how preparing your body to move well—not just exercising—can support greater comfort during pregnancy, provide more options during labor, and lay the foundation for a smoother postpartum recovery.

What if preparing for birth has nothing to do with working out? Before you add another prenatal workout to your routine, consider this: your body is already giving you the information you need—you just haven’t been taught how to listen.

Back pain while babywearing is incredibly common—but it’s not something you just have to live with. Whether it’s a small tweak to your carrier fit or a deeper issue with how your body is managing the load, there are real, practical ways to feel better. In this post, we’ll walk through how to pinpoint the root cause and what to do next.

Human babies are born expecting to be held close. They’ve spent nine months in constant motion, surrounded by warmth, heartbeat, and breath. And after birth, their development continues to depend on that same contact.

This isn’t about doing more. It’s about moving smarter—so you can feel better now and recover more smoothly later.

If you’re pregnant, these five movements are a powerful way to start creating space in your pelvis today—and trust me, your future self in labor will thank you.

As a babywearing consultant and yoga teacher, I’ve helped countless parents reclaim their bodies and their breath—without having to put their babies down. Not only can you do yoga while babywearing, it can actually enhance your practice in beautiful, surprising ways.

Babywearing walks are wonderful—but they’re not everything your body needs postpartum.

You want to feel strong again. You want to move your body. You want that part of you back.

But instead of feeling empowered, you’re wondering:
“Why is this so hard?”

Looking to get moving while keeping your baby close? Babywearing during exercise can be a beautiful way to care for your body and your baby—but not all carriers are equally suited for movement.

What if the thing your baby wants most—the warmth and closeness of being held—could also support your recovery?

Here’s the truth: your core isn’t just weak—it’s been stretched, shifted, and reprogrammed. Pregnancy and birth change the way your body functions. That means you don’t just need to "get stronger"—you need to retrain your body from the inside out.

The first six weeks after birth are a time of profound transition. Your body has done an incredible thing—growing, nourishing, and delivering a baby. Now, it’s in recovery mode, healing from pregnancy and birth while adapting to the demands of early postpartum life.

Staying active during the winter months doesn’t have to mean choosing between entertaining your kids and getting your own workout in. Why not combine the two? Here’s how to design an obstacle course that’s simple, effective, and fun for the whole family!

A common misconception is that pelvic floor health is only relevant for pregnant or postpartum individuals. In reality, the pelvic floor affects everyone—regardless of whether they’ve had children.

While lots of us have an inkling that there are things we should be doing to help prepare our bodies and mind for birth, there's often very little out there telling us what exactly to do...and even more rare, why to do it. If you're lucky, maybe you've been given some stretched to do by your doula or midwife, but many of us are left to our own devices.

Let’s be real: “I don’t want to be fat” is a shit motivator. Pardon my French. If feeling bad about our bodies was enough to drive us to make positive changes, we’d all feel amazing by now. But we don’t. And honestly, what’s so wrong with being fat, anyway?
