Hello ,

It's Dr Chinasa here from Ariella Health and Fitness. Thank you so much for signing up for our upcoming MEDICALLY SUPERVISED WEIGHTLOSS CHALLENGE FOR BREASTFEEDING MUMS. We are truly excited to work with you for 10 days starting November 9th.

You will be hearing a lot from us in the coming days but everything will go down in the whatsapp group which you will be added to shortly.

If your tummy still looks pregnant months after delivery, a postpartum abdominal condition called diastasis recti might be to blame. Now, how do you know if you have diastesis recti (DR)? Let us check:

Just lie on your back with your knees bent and feet on the floor.

Put one hand on your belly, with your fingers on your midline at your navel. Press your fingertips down gently, and bring your head (shoulders stay on the ground) up into a mini crunch-like position.

Feel for the sides of your recti abdominis muscles, and see if and how far they are separated, for instance, two or three (or more) fingers' separation

Do you have DR?

Do check and let me know....

Meanwhile , did i tell you that we will have a zoom masterclass on the 13th on mental health for mothers? Ah...you do not want to miss this. We will have a mental health expert onboard to teach us. I am excited about that too.

Talk to you soon !

Dr Chinasa
