When I was looking for some information about „Mom and Baby Yoga“ I found this article written by Lucy Curran mom like you.
Maybe you want to lose weight after birth, maybe you want to find healthy and fun activity for you and your baby, or maybe you feel lonely and you want to find somebody like you – mom with a baby.
My storry about Mom Baby Yoga
Mom and Baby Yoga? There was no way I was doing yoga. It turned out after speaking to the girls that they already had a fitness plan, and were meeting to go to some yoga class the following week. I’d only ever seen yoga on television, and I wouldn’t have even considered trying it pre-Harry (my son).
I was never that skinny and stealth. The women all looked like they hadn’t eaten for at least five years, and there was no way I was ever learning how to be a ‘delicate lotus’ with all of the cellulite I’d accumulated now. I lied and told them I couldn’t get a babysitter…
Turns out you can take your little ones to mom and baby yoga. I was worried it would be new agey, but our first session soon dispelled all the worries I had about mom baby yoga.
Friendly and chatty, the class was only for parents, and I met a whole gaggle of new local mums. We chatted about our babies, their first rolls, nappies and missing socks, and Harry played merrily with the other tots that were there – something which really made me smile as he’s an only child and I was worried that when it came to mixing with other babies he’d wouldn’t cope. Turns out he’s a bit of a socialite – that’s my boy!
A qualified baby yoga teacher started us off with some very simple stretches, which were fine for any physical type. Her training with Birthlight means she knows exactly what our bodies have been through, and so nothing was too much. I was petrified that Harry would cry when it came to including him in the work out but he just smiled. It must feel good, after all, to have the shouty tired woman who’s been harassing you for all this time give you some proper, physical warmth and lavish attention.
The stimulation that babies receive doing yoga releases endorphins in the brain, and so they clearly glow after a session, just as we do after a turn at the gym. It was great to know he felt so cared for.
As time went on, our classes did become more adventurous. The stretches we learned started to actively include our babies (they are fabulous weights!) and we all became far less inhibited, and felt happy to move onto the more complex movements.
To calm the babies, Sue introduced music into the classes, which soothed them no end – in all the time I’ve been going now, I don’t think we’ve ever had a baby have to be taken out for crying.
After Harry’s bath, I often do yoga with him at home now, and the heat of my hands and the slow, rhythmic nature of the movements send him to sleep with much greater ease than a simple cuddle and a song tape ever could. He started sleeping through the night months before a lot of other babies that we know, and I’m in no doubt that that has sonething to do with our „mom and baby yoga“.
