Getting back into shape

It's easier to update my blog while baby is sleeping, and baby monitor is the greatest invention ever, I can hear her & know her movement while in another room. The midwife said it'll take up to 3 months to get back into shape, and she recommended 2 exercises, the pelvic floor muscle (kegel exercise) and the abdominal exercise. There's a secret from Michelle Moss, the author of Pregnancy without pounds & Mommy without pounds to tummy exercise:

When it comes to flat abs, though, you really need to know the secret. For example, if you're thinking that you can just do situps every night - uh-uh!

The key to a flat tummy is training (and connecting to) your core. In fact, it's your deep abdominal muscle (transverse abdominus), and not your rectus abdominal (the 6 pack!), that will help you regain (or get) a flat stomach.
So forget the situps and rather start with this great exercise...

Heel Drag...
- Lie on your back with your knees bent and feet flat on the floor.
- Set your core by pulling your belly button in towards your spine (with a neutral spine, no pelvic tilt, and relaxed buttocks).
- Slowly slide one heel along the floor keeping your heel in contact with the floor at all times and then slowly return the leg back to starting position.
- Repeat 4 times each leg.

There's a video & audio program Fit Yummy Mummy , bascially a system on getting back a flat tummy, on nutrition and time management skills.

Still hunting for good breastfeeding bra, here's some tips.
