38. Postpartum weight loss

Your six-week postpartum checkup is supposed to be a milestone in your recovery, but does it really cover everything you need? For many moms, this appointment feels more like a conversation about birth control than an actual check-in on their mental and physical well-being. In this episode, I’m breaking down what to really focus on postpartum, how to support your hormones and metabolism, and why the scale does not determine your progress.

Here's a sneak peek:

[1:02] I share about my 6-week postpartum checkup, birth control, getting weighed

[4:21] My focus for the first two months postpartum

[9:25] What to do after the first two months?

[12:41] My second and third postpartum experience

[14:00] We have a belief about what it means to get down to our pre-baby body and how you talk to your body about it

Your six-week postpartum checkup may be a routine milestone, but true postpartum healing goes way beyond a quick doctor’s visit. Instead of focusing on bouncing back, prioritize fueling your body, supporting your hormones, and taking care of your mental health. If this episode resonated with you, share it with a fellow mom who needs this reminder, and don’t forget to subscribe for more postpartum support!
