If you're reading this, know that you are beautiful and exactly where you need to be on your journey! You're doing amazing and I hope you know it! xx

[@CoupleRecipes]

I just gave birth, we are 13 days old, but I don't have an old life, I'm really need this and motivation 🙈

[@jessicahechinger1044]

Thank you for this content. I am 4 months postpartum and will be doing some heesh, heesh from now on! Haha

[@Neiruzz]

❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@ellifunk]

I was 1 week PP when my FIL said to me “you look like you’re pregnant again” Imagine being sleep deprived, in absolute pain from tearing so badly, & I was actually so proud of my body for what it had done, and you hear those words. Brittany, you don’t know how grateful I am for your videos, they’re exactly what I need to hear whenever I’m feeling down

[@ladykitty16]

First of all what an a$$. Don't listen to anybody who doesn't know what our bodies have gone through

[@sasha_markovsky]

What an insensitive man. Also tells a lot how much he was involved with his own wife's recovery back in the day... I hope you're doing well now! 💐

[@ajohonly3721]

Your FIL was so wrong for that honestly . I’m so sorry hope he apologizes . I hate when men comment on women in these hard times like you want to break me down or what? My BIL told me that I was was fat in 2018 & in 2022 while pregnant again honestly I snapped . I don’t think he will ever comment on a woman again.

[@pallyberry]

your FIL should never be commenting on your body...that's a YIKES....not to mention he should know 1 WEEK isn't even enough time for the hemorrhoids to go away! LOL

[@crownofsplendor2023]

I have a FIL who says things like that to me and makes rude comments out loud in public if someone is heavier than he is(it’s utterly embarrassing and cruel). I understand how hurtful this really is. It can make you cry your eyes out. Remember, his opinion does NOT get to have a say in your life if it is going to be hurtful and insensitive in any way. Remember that when he wants to hold that baby you just had.

[@margar96]

Anyone who’s had kids KNOWS what “getting my body back” means and it’s the best feeling when you finally do. I’m so happy you are there. My son is 9m and I’m not quite there yet but I know I’m getting closer and I’m okay with that

[@itslizzie349]

Brittany with you its never "one of those videos" This is why you are the best Hands down!!!!!!!

[@brittanybalyn]

💞

[@CharlottaSophia]

She’s such a sweetheart though... she’s got the bestie vibe 🙂💗

[@HollyBaby20]

I’m 3 months pp now and I definitely don’t feel like this body is mine! It’s so weird... but giving myself grace because it is an even more amazing body now !

[@brittanybalyn]

exactly!!! the MOST grace after going through the biggest thing ever, birth - newborn life - postpartum!

[@kaylas6800]

You have so much time time your ONLY 3 months pp ❤️❤️❤️

[@betylaguerrera]

I know how you feel. Right now I'm 3.5 pp & I feel like I can't walk fast or run. My belly is very unattractive lol I'm hopeful though & trying to be patient

[@Jenkittypaw]

You are so good at sharing things with us to the level that you make us all feel like a bestie. Really love open, supportive people like you 💗

[@HubaAkbar]

I needed this! I needed to see how real everything is. No gimmicks no edit & absolutely everything real and this means a lot. I’ve noted down so many things from your videos. Thankyou so much for being genuine ❤️ I’m currently 27 days postpartum & first time mom, honestly your pregnancy update and postpartum videos have helped me so much!! I literally search up your videos to watch them on regular basis. You’re amazing!!! Keep shining 🌟

[@phoebejanemccarthy8213]

I am not post partum but post spinal surgery/condition diagnosis and your last little chat about feeling like having to accept “this is it, this is how it’s going to be now” is where I am right now experiencing a set back and your words really helped me to look at this as a positive and a learning/growing experience and to love my body and it’s recovery at every stage of this process. Thank you 🙏🏼 xx

[@kellydonley3681]

Just here to say "Thank you!" I am 8 months PP with twins and working on my diastasis. I am finally starting to see a real difference after going to a pelvic floor physical therapist and the heart felt way you ended this video really touched me. I truly appreciate you and your kind, genuine approach to these videos.

[@AAlven17]

I am 4 months postpartum and I HEAR you about feeling disconnected to your body and “getting it back.” It feels good to have your own body back because pregnancy takes so much of you! Right down to how you sleep! Happy to be back to sleeping on my back! Love this video!!

[@annaj4266]

Love how realistic and honest you are I’m almost 9 months pp and getting up and having a run outside seems impossible for me. But most definitely im not going to push myself to a breaking point and mental breakdown over my post baby body. Energy is the most important thing for me which it’s something I lack so much since giving birth and being a single parent. I definitely feel ready now to start increasing my energy levels through light exercise. You’re the only Person I come to on KZbin to find some type of similarity with. I relate to a lot of your experiences giving birth and pp healing. Thank you for this content!

[@annatheres3]

Every body is beautiful. If you're reading this, hope you know that

[@ubsessedwithmkup6949]

Thanks sane to you babe

[@kellycoffey7449]

I love your explanation of “getting your body back” that’s exactly how I feel working on my 7 month postpartum body but you articulated it for me!

[@crissyjazzyduh]

Thank you Brittany! I'm now 7 months post partum, and I loved your words of encouragement. Thank you thank you. You have been beautiful, inside and out. Before, during and after your pregnancy. Arrow is beyond blessed to have such a smart, Beautiful, and independent mommy! ❤

[@raecat90]

I am so glad you shared this! I love how you encourage not rushing the process of healing and focusing on building strength again!

[@tiaratran]

Love your gentle approach! I’m 7 months PP and just starting to try to get my strength back a little bit. I’ve felt super weak too. You don’t realize how much it effects everything you do when you don’t have core strength!! It makes doing regular things so much harder!

[@bdigi23]

So helpful. 6 months postpartum this week and was so sad and defeated this weekend, feeling like my body is foreign and is unrecognizable to me. And I’m working SO hard everyday. Thank you for sharing your beautiful journey! Proud of you! Been following along since before arrow and love coming along!

[@ellianakimes9410]

I’m six months postpartum tomorrow. Thank you for all of your encouraging words. You’re a beautiful person inside and out💗

[@19lalitaa]

Omg I so appreciate how honest you are! I love your channel! I’m struggle right now with 17months postpartum. When I was breastfeeding so often I wasn’t eating right and I lost so much weight (45lbs lighter than when I delivered) everyone told me I looked sick. Now I’ve gained 15 lbs and I have days when I feel good and other days where I’m not comfortable in my body. But I remind myself that I gave birth and I have to love myself and my body and work hard at it everyday. Thanks so much for you’re kind words! ❤️

[@alyssavanmouwerik3854]

I can't tell you how much I appreciate your honesty and showing all the realness of having a baby. ILYSM HOW IS ARROW ALMOST 1?!

[@lizg6084]

Yesss to ALL of this. I’m 9 months pp and only recently feeling like myself again. I was so weak after birth that I couldn’t even sit up on my own. Never mind the pain, bleeding, etc. all while trying to figure out how to take care of a precious little babe. Women are AMAZING!

[@gabrielazoo6299]

Currently pregnant and wow I needed to hear that part at the end. I’m already feeling so much weaker I’m so scared for how things are going to end up for me but this truly helped me just relax and try and have peace with my journey. Thank you so much, I will be rewatching this.

[@beatingheartbaby6837]

Thank you for your honest sharing about your experience. I’m 6 months postpartum and definitely relate, cracked up at the “slinky full of jello”! It was so humbling to try to walk around the block a week after birth and feel exhausted, when I used to exercise 4-5 days a week and walk for hours. I’ve come a long way but am not where I wanna be yet, and seeing you feel strong and at home in your body is so encouraging. Much love and appreciation🙏♥️

[@Rinsplamb53]

This has been my favorite video so far. I’m 5 months postpartum and am struggling with patience and as you said “being connected” to my body. I’m going to be coming back to this video when I need to hear some positive words around this journey. Thank you 🤍

[@Celena_vlogs]

girl you look so amaaaazing! i am pregnant with baby number 4 and cannot wait to try these exercises. I want to share my journey too! its beautiful to look back on how far you have come. your awesome and so inspiring.

[@MotherhoodPsychology]

I love this video! I’m now 10 months postpartum and just started loving my body again. Learning to love yourself after baby is sometimes hard. I recently started my fitness journey, and it has changed my mindset, I actually feel good about myself again! Thank you for this REAL video! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@JxArrieta]

I'm 27 and don't have kids, but I've never felt more weak and tired in my life🥴 My back hurts all the time and i can't do anything slightly hard cuz I'll be dying out of breath. Totally understand what you mean by "getting my body back". You are really inspiring, I wanna feel strong and healthy again without worrying about "looks". Thank you so much for sharing your journey with us, brit. ❤️

[@daryagrishchuk9370]

Girl I love how realistic and positive you are ❤

[@JustQable]

I needed this🤍 I’m 7 months pp with my 1st child, and everything you said in this video made me cry the happiest teardrops I’ve ever felt! Thank you for allowing your words to be so kind and gentle to other sweet souled mamas🦋✨!

[@brittanybalyn]

You got this! You're doing amazing and I'm so happy I could help you on your journey!

[@MM-ys3lr]

My daughter is almost 2 and it’s been a slow come back, but seeing changes slowly! Thank you for this video and an honest portrayal of the postpartum journey 😊

[@ThriftDrifter]

I am 8 months PP, going on 9 and I just *really* needed to hear those last 30 seconds girl. Love you, thank you for being you!

[@tbrough90]

Yes Mama! Everyone tells you about how, hard baby sleep can be, breastfeeding struggles, teething, diapers, etc. No one prepared me for the melted otter pop body I would have after I gave birth. You are fantastic. Thank you for being honest. I had my son just one month after you had Arrow, and it has been really lovely to go on this pregnancy/post partum journey and not feel alone.

[@ashleys95]

I needed this! I’m 8 weeks PP and most days I hate this new body, not because of how it looks, but because of how it feels. I’m a fitness instructor and I taught classes two to four times a week throughout my pregnancy along with my regular workouts. I run obstacle course races too and I have never felt this weak. My body doesn’t do what I want it to do and it doesn’t feel as strong as I know it was and I am struggling! So thank you for this.

[@prernapnegi]

You’re the best. Thank you for this. ❤️ I am almost 7 months postpartum and you’re the inspiration I needed ❤️ stay strong Brittany ! Sending love to you and arrow ☺️

[@alyssarh]

Thank you so much for this Brittany ❤ I'm so glad to see that you're feeling more back in your body now, this was really helpful to see. Thank you for sharing this as always ❤

[@beautysolutions87]

Love you Brittany. You’re such a sweet beautiful soul. I feel like you’re my sister or mom friend in real life. You pour your soul into your videos and I surely can feel it. That’s why I feel so connected to you 😘😘😘 thanks for being your true self. Hope that no matter how famous you get that’ll never change. Love you ❤️

[@shegardenssometimes]

The thing about your body not listening to you- absolutely relatable 😭 A few hours after I gave birth I stood up to use the restroom and I just straight up pissed myself. And it happened a few more times after that too! It still happens here and there. But I’m trying to build my strength back up and its been helping. My roommate at the hospital was a second time mom and she was so sweet… she just said through the curtain that she peed herself a few weeks earlier. I forget what I said to her or if I forgot to respond because I was so deliriously tired, but it was sweet of her to offer that comfort that it’s normal. Our bodies are capable of some crazy shit, I guess it makes sense that it would need time to repair. If we were capable of growing life for 9 months and giving birth (in whichever way it happened!), we are damn well capable of repairing ourselves as well. 💪😎 (But if I’m being honest I didn’t feel that way at the beginning- I thought all hope was lost for my poor bladder. lol)

[@2898mp]

Mom of a 11 month old too. Thank you for describing your pp journey like this. I felt the same way about my body. So strong but so weak at the same time. Love your content!

[@chalenem373]

Thanks for sharing and being so honest! Having you to relate to has been so helpful and comforting

[@lauramiramontes3467]

Love watching your videos Monday mornings! It always gives me that extra motivation I need for the week! 💕

[@brittanybalyn]

yay I love that!! 💞

[@nadined95]

Yes girl! This exactly helped me understand how I’ve been feeling about my body PP!! I’m 7 months PP & have been trying to figure out the ‘new me vs old me’ but you’re so right, I don’t want to be the old me, and must embrace the new me. Thank you xx

[@alyssaflores22]

I'm 3 months postpartum now. I'm still dealing with postpartum depression and anxiety and the constant questioning of who I am now and how much my body has changed. Thank you as always Brittany for the honesty and making us moms know we aren't alone 💕

[@mintbutterfly10]

🤗💗

[@elleinahammitt95]

Love this! My daughter is also 11 months and my body is definitely not what it once was. Your journey puts hope in me that with dedication I can get the body that I am once again comfortable in and happy with 💗 Today is day 1!

[@esta1004]

You are seriously my favorite “internet” person! Thank you for always being so real about your journey as a mother! ❤️

[@TheOriginalRachFace]

I so appreciate your observations at the end of this video. I had baby #3 in March and definitely feel like a stranger in my skin right now. I appreciate the reminder that it takes time. I know it does; I’ve been here twice before but this time is harder for some reason.

[@kaitlinpattersonn]

I needed to hear this part at the end! ❤️ thank you for being so honest.

[@brittanybalyn]

💞

[@susanna2841]

I love how genuine you are that here I am, never been pregnant, and watching you discuss your postpartum workout routine😂

[@monicac1411]

I’m still trying get back into my body 9.5 months postpartum. It’s good to know you’re not alone in these feels. Love you and love poor oil teething Arrow (my daughter is going through it too, so much chewing/drooling/crying) 💖

[@twentyninefour]

Ughhh I love you Brittany. Going through such a hard time right now with PPD even after 5 months. But your videos always give me hope and makes me feel like I have someone I can relate to and that I’m not alone. I can’t workout yet but I’m seeing a physiotherapist as my body is going through IT! I’ve got knots all over my neck shoulders and back, inflammation on my ab muscles and legs. I used to be so fit but now I’m working on slowly getting to my best self. Thank you for being so open and honest❤️!! (Totally a word vomit)

[@brittanywhite4016]

Yasss girl, lookin snatched!! 🔥🔥🔥 You’re beautiful inside and out!

[@brittanybalyn]

[@MariaandMontessori]

Yes this is the video I've been waiting for!!!

[@gisellefincham7853]

I am just about to give birth to my second baby and watching your videos has helped me accept and appreciate all that my body has done and will do again here soon. You are a true example of confidence is sexy and beauty is both internal and external. Thank you for keeping it real. 💓

[@TC-it8ys]

Yes, yes, yes! I felt this way after the birth of my daughter. I felt disconnected as well from my body because, normally, I could do certain things and after my pregnancy, I could no longer do those things. It was hard because 9 months isn’t a long time when you think about how 9 months before you were so active and your body was used to moving a certain way and now it can’t. I remember feeling so out of touch with my body and who I was. It took so long for me to get myself feeling “normal” again but in some way I became better. 1 year to the day after giving birth I ran my first 10K and that was huge because before having a child, I couldn’t run for 10 mins even though I was active and healthy overall. Congrats on getting back to you!

[@crownofsplendor2023]

Thank you, I’m glad I found this video. I am pregnant now and 43 and I always had a tiny stomach all the way until 2020 (even after 2 kids), when I had another child at 40. I got diastes recti and didn’t heal it before this one. I am so motivated to getting it taken after I have this one!❤

[@hannahmartinez4259]

Best diastasis recti move I’ve seen yet! Thank you! I can feel such a difference doing it

[@rebeccacole6910]

I get exactly what you mean when you say about your core! I had a big baby and DR postpartum. It literally felt like my core had been ripped out and 6 months did feel like that! 8 months and starting to feel better and better each day 🥰

[@Ericachild]

Thanks for this positive message. I'm 5 mpp and this gives me motivation to start working out again doing your ab strengthner! Thanks Brittany!

[@chocokorey]

Thank you. I needed this video. I am 5mpp and I have had the worst week, I have never felt more disgusting in my life before…I just started working out again and I was so shocked at how weak I am. I couldn’t even lay on my back and raise my legs! So I’ve had really bad mental breakdowns this week…and it’s only Tuesday. So now I am sitting here your video ended and I am crying so much. I want to believe it’s gonna get better but I have to remind myself I’m just gonna be different now and that’s not a bad thing.

[@amandarisdal]

This gives me so much hope for my recovery, especially cause I had a c section💓💓you look great girl😩

[@megolego879]

I’m so grateful I found you and wish I would’ve sooner! You’re giving me motivation to see my doc about my alleged diastasis recti

[@Ishbelable]

I am 8 months post partum and yesterday I looked in the mirror for the 1st time and thought 'oh there I am'. I have been so disconnected from my body and so weak and sore for so long. 7.5 months was my turning point where I feel like things were really starting to feel almost, dare I say, good. I am still 20kg heavier than I was before but MY shape is there now and my muscles have finally caught up to carry the extra weight and feel more energetic and active. I never expected it to take so long!

[@jenngranados825]

Aw Brittany... Your videos help me so much! I am one year postpartum and I felt my best at 3 months postpartum but after that I had the worst multiple sclerosis flare up I’ve had! Just when I was ready to go all in into my fitness journey my body just gave up and now I can’t even carry my baby because just going for a walk it’s a major struggle along with a full time job it’s a lot but your positivity just makes me believe that There’s still hope for me I just have tu push myself a little bit more

[@rosasellers1813]

Sending you strength and love and courage 🤍

[@Tukitri]

ARROW’S 11 MONTHS OLD????? Omg i remember even the video when you announced your pregnancy and commenting when you were 2 weeks aways from having her😭😭 congrats on everything girl! Been here since the makeup days and will be here 4everrrr I just love your content 💕💕

[@emilamaa]

This was really inspirational and good motivation for me! Not in the sense of losing more weight or getting a smaller tummy but remembering my goal to get my strength back! I'm currently 8m postpartum and it's one of those things where you do forget how strong you used to be untill you try to do some workouts again especially ab workouts and this was good motivation to remind me I CAN get even stronger I am not done (in a good way) so thank you for reminding me to kick myself in the butt again ♥️

[@KatyKidder]

I am 5 weeks post partum and can relate so much! I'm hoping when I go in for my 6 week appointment I get cleared to work out because I feel almost sickly with how weak I am 😩 This video helped and motivated me so much, thank you!! ❤

[@brittanybalyn]

give yourself lots of time to heal! I got the go ahead at 6 weeks and I didn't start till 6 months PP - but everyone is different so definitely do what feels right to you! 💞

[@Canadianbrunnette]

I didn’t start until 6 months either!

[@abali102]

I needed to hear this at 7 weeks postpartum thank you so much!

[@jessicadesmet3471]

I love your videos! I found you while I was nesting and wanted to watch hospital prep/ nursery set up/ pregnancy stuff/ etc. I'm 6 months behind you. I just wish you didn't cut off the end of your sentences so much. It feels rushed and I need to watch the videos twice to feel like I caught everything. Other than that, all your stuff is right up my alley! I love Mondays!

[@Wx5XiKnYC1]

Thank you for the inspiration. I'm currently 2 months postpartum. Yes you are right, April & May was a very hard month for me because my body was/still is so weak. Even going up and down the stairs is hard (my legs will shake). But I've noticed that this month June is much better and getting easier each day. Every month I take a picture of my body to see the progress but honestly I'm okay with how it looks.

[@artistiquesfille]

Needed this. I had a pretty traumatic pregnancy and birth journey and I wonder how I’m able to overcome and do all the things I push myself to do daily for my baby boy. There are those days I have moments where I absolutely lose it and the overwhelming aspect of it all hits me (basically when I’m exhausted and barely hanging on by a thread). Thank you Brittany for reminding me to be patient and most of all kind to myself. This made me feel so much better about the disconnection I feel with my body. Sending you and Arrow love! 💖

[@fernandagohr9252]

You’re so sweet! Thanks for sharing! I’m 17 weeks pregnant your content has been very nice!

[@adeiifee]

I could relate to what you were saying in this video! I’m 3 months post partum and also have DR (3 finger gap). I’ve had to Explain to people that me exercising is not bc of vain reasons but simply bc I feel debilitated and just want to feel strong again. Britt I completely get it ! Thanks for sharing 🎊

Mine too. My baby girl is 1 this week 🥰

[@sunshine037gv]

This really needs to be said more. 4 months pp I was thinking I will need to buy an entirely new wardrobe. The only clothes I could wear were my pregnancy clothes. Now at 7 months pp I can finally fit in my old clothes, but my body is not the same at all. And I love it as it is, because my life is not the same either and I my body is exactly what it needs to be. 💜

[@Jefficusmagnus]

I'm 9 weeks postpartum. I was diagnosed with diastasis recti in my first week and refered to physio immediately. I will admit I was so overwhelmed with breastfeeding and sleep deprivation that I didn't really do the exercises but they were healing pretty well on their own. Then 1 week ago I felt a sharp pain after lifting my baby and felt a sharp pain - my recti separated again above my belly button and were probably worse off than in my first month post partum. My core strength is really bad right now and lifting my baby has become physically painful. I was becoming sceptical and worried if I'll ever recover (as you said this is not just about regaining a flat tummy again). But seeing your videos and your amazing recovery, I am determined to try and take 15 minutes daily to do the exercises you mentioned (which is exactly what my physio has recommended) and hope to get my strength back.

Love your videos, you've helped me prepare for my daughter who will be here in less than three weeks. This was inspiring and I want to remember the message you shared here once I'm postpartum! Thanks

I feel like I needed to hear this. With my first baby I was as close to pre pregnancy body I could ever be after 1 year postpartum and I was in love with myself. With this pregnancy at 5 months postpartum my body doesn’t feel mine. I’m giving myself time this isn’t the same. Lockdown wasn’t a thing then and I now have two kids. I will be ok eventually ☺️

I'm 7 going on 8 months pp and have undiagnosed DR. Love your videos all the way from England ☺️ loved watching your journey as you are a couple of month ahead, thanks for being honest 🧡

As a plus size person, I think your pp videos are very realistic and don’t come across like you’re talking down to people because you acknowledge how hard it is and are honest about your feelings. It’s refreshing
