Being a new mom can be exciting, scary and exhausting. Mentally there are many changes and physically they are major to say the least. The body isn't working like it did before and frankly it looks nothing like it did. There are so many questions as to where to start or what to do. What is the most effective method to achieve success? How could I possibly take care of a baby and get my body back? Well we are going to go through how to eat, water consumption, rehab and rebuilding. Let's dive in.

Moms supporting moms is the best way to get to the goal. If one mom succeeds then it can give hope for the other moms around them. Does it always work that way? No many times people tear each other down, tear themselves down, or simply dismiss others achievements of no consequence to their lives. Ultimately we can learn from others successes and can impact our lives in a positive way from simple unbiased observation. Yes some things won't work for some that worked for others but that is where we can find what does and doesn't work. Studies, stories, books and philosophy give us ideas of what will work for us but real life anecdotal data can provide a seeing is believing moment.
