Yeah.
So what's crazy is both babies were kind of born in that COVID time.
Like Grayson was just a few months old when COVID hit.
And so...
Once I got cleared, I, you know, around the six-week mark, they say, I started going on more walks and getting more steps and light stretches and yoga.
And then I started doing, like, little dumbbell work, like strength training.
And I have videos of, like, me doing, like, push-ups with him, like, on my back, like my mom setting him on my back and, like, doing, like, little things incorporating him at home.
So I did a lot of at-home work that –
with dumbbells you can do.
But one thing I was big about with both babies is like listening to my body and specifically with my core.
I would never like push myself too hard to where it felt like I was going past the limits of what my body could provide at that time.
And I think that's something that's very important.
So you kind of have to look at it as like,
building back strength and like phases and just kind of listening to your body and checking in with yourself and going up and wait, for instance, with dumbbells when you feel like you can, but not pushing it past that point.
Cause I feel like a lot of damage can come from that.
Yeah.
But I honestly was not into lifting the way I am now until after my second.
Yeah.
Oh, really?
Wow.
