Christina,

Ouch! Wisdom teeth surgery can really take a toll on you. I'm sorry to hear that your recovery was so hard. Hope you are able to get a couple minutes of kettlebells in soon. I have to get my wisdom teeth taken out as well. Not looking forward to that. 8-(

Franz,

I am sure you learned so much seeing Yoana go through her pregnancy, although she made it look easier than most. 8-) Thanks!

Katie,

Finding time is definitely challenging. I just don't have much down time. Eventually I will find that balance, but for now I am constantly having different projects brewing. Thank you, I appreciate your kind words.

Rainer,

You are so right! Kettlebells are perfect for lots of people. 8-) It just so happens moms need to know how well they will work in their crazy schedules. Many moms may be intimidated by them, unlike the daddies. Very cute, thank you. 8-P

I have now been through 2 C-sections since writing this blog post and thankfully I've recovered beautifully from both with the appropriate progressions. For those who are new and are just finding me. WELCOME! First let me say I did NOT want a C-section. I did everything in my power to avoid the first and even the second. I'm a kettlebell fitness strength and conditioning coach who relies on her body to share, teach, educate, and I was under the impression that having to give birth via C-section would and could destroy my body and career. Boy was I wrong! If you're feeing the same way, start by reading this article I wrote many years ago that still applies today! Many people have asked and here is part of my experience.  I don't claim to be a medical expert but not only have I successfully healed my C-section, my abdominals are no longer numb, and I've successfully helped others who've had multiple C-sections (even some 20 years ago) find their core aga...
