Boosting Your Confidence After Childbirth – A Guide for New Moms

Boosting Your Confidence After Childbirth – A Guide for New Moms


Hello to you, new mom!


If you are in the midst of postpartum, know that I understand you completely. I myself am just one month after welcoming my third child. I'm just beginning to emerge from what is called the "golden month," that intense period just after birth. It's a time of great change where your self-confidence can be seriously tested. But don't worry, I'm here to share some tips with you, including a specially designed hypnosis program to help strengthen that confidence.


Why is Self-Confidence Crucial in Postpartum?


After childbirth, your body and mind go through a multitude of transformations. Impressive, isn't it? Between sleepless nights, caring for your little one, and daily adjustments, it's easy to feel a bit lost. But believe me, taking care of your self-confidence is essential for experiencing this transition as smoothly as possible.


A Word from My Personal Experience

Having recently gone through these challenges for the third time, I know how important it is to feel supported. That’s what drove me to create, with Christine, a hypnosis-based program to boost the self-confidence of moms after childbirth.


The Importance of Supporting Each Other as Moms

You are not alone! Support is a pillar for overcoming the challenges of postpartum. It is essential to surround yourself with people who understand what you are going through. Consider joining support groups for moms, having discussions with friends who have been through it before, or even sessions with empathetic professionals. Together, we are stronger, and we can share our experiences and solutions.


Discover the Power of Hypnosis to Strengthen Your Confidence

This hypnosis program will allow you to rediscover your inner strength and feel capable of managing this new life with your baby. Hypnosis is an incredible method for working on the thoughts and feelings that may affect you during this period. It provides a moment for you, to deeply relax and come back stronger.


A Personalized Program, Just for You

Every mom is unique, and so is every postpartum experience. That's why I make sure this program meets your specific needs. Christine will take the time during her appointments to discuss what you're going through, your concerns, and what you'd like to improve. Together, we will build a path that will allow you to feel calm, confident, and connected to your baby.


Tips from a Physiotherapist for Your Physical Well-being

As a physiotherapist, I know how important it is to take care of your body, especially after childbirth. Here are some simple but effective exercises for your belly and perineum that I regularly recommend to my patients, let me quickly summarize:

For the Perineum:

  • Kegel contractions: These exercises, which involve contracting and relaxing the pelvic floor muscles, are essential after childbirth. They help prevent incontinence and improve sensitivity during sexual intercourse. Start by gently contracting the perineum muscles as if you were trying to hold back gas or stop the flow of urine, hold the contraction for a few seconds, then release. Do three sets of 10 repetitions each day.

For the Belly:

  • Abdominal breathing: Lying on your back, knees bent and feet flat on the ground, place one hand on your belly. Breathe deeply through your nose, focusing on inflating your belly under your hand, then slowly exhale through your mouth while lightly contracting your abdominals and pulling your belly in. Repeat this exercise for 5 to 10 minutes a day.

  • The bridge: Still lying on your back, feet flat on the ground and arms along your sides, gently lift your hips towards the ceiling while contracting your buttocks and belly. Hold this position for a few seconds then slowly lower back down. This exercise helps strengthen the abdominal muscles while protecting your perineum. Do two to three sets of 10 repetitions.

Le pont : Toujours allongée sur le dos, les pieds à plat sur le sol et les bras le long du corps, soulève doucement tes hanches vers le plafond tout en contractant tes fessiers et ton ventre. Garde cette position quelques secondes puis redescends lentement. Cet exercice aide à renforcer les muscles abdominaux tout en protégeant ton périnée. Fais deux à trois séries de 10 répétitions.


These exercises will help strengthen areas strained during pregnancy and childbirth. However, it's crucial to start gently and gradually increase the intensity. Do not hesitate to come to appointments before starting any new exercise program, especially in postpartum.

By integrating these exercises into your daily routine, you will greatly contribute to your physical well-being and self-confidence. Take this time for yourself, as taking care of your body is also a powerful form of self-care.


In Conclusion

Taking care of yourself and your self-confidence during postpartum is not a luxury, it’s a necessity. I'm here to support you with empathy and expertise. With this hypnosis program, physical recovery, and mutual support among moms, you can experience this transition positively and enrichingly.


Feeling good in your mind and body!


So, are you ready to regain your strength and fully enjoy your maternity?

I invite you to stay connected, as being a fulfilled mom is above all about feeling good in your own skin. And that’s my goal for you!
