You are pregnant or postpartum & you feel like your butt has literally disappeared..

If you’re anything like me, a big butt was hard to come by in the 1st place & it took years of strength training & heavy lifting to build.

I’ll never forget the shock of looking in the mirror just days after giving birth & seeing that my butt was just… gone.

I felt completely defeated & insecure. Not only was my butt gone, my abs were fluffier & my br3asts were huge. I didn’t recognize the athlete I once was.

But once I understood the science behind what was actually happening, I felt so much less defeated & insecure. 

During pregnancy, your center of gravity shifts, causing your pelvis to tilt. This shift, combined with hormonal changes & breastfeeding, can cause your glutes to turn off or over-tighten, leading to a loss of muscle tone (aka flatter butt)

During this shift, our pelvis tends to sway forward which means we constantly stand with our butt tucked under. When we stand like this, our glutes grip, leading to over-tight & underactive glutes.

This unfavorable posture tends to continue in postpartum bc we are constantly baby wearing, holding our babies, & breastfeeding, which also leads to less glute involvement & a flatter butt appearance.

In addition, our core is weaker postpartum, which can make our glutes tuck under & grip even harder to find the stability it needs.

Big butts are more than just for aesthetic purposes too..

Strong glutes are non-negotiable for a pregnant & postpartum body to function w/o dysfunction or pain.

All of these body changes & habits can lead to pelvic floor dysfunction like peeing, pain, & heaviness if not counteracted.

The good news? Your glutes can be built thru strength training. Yes momma, that means it is time to lift some weights BEFORE, DURING & AFTER baby. 

During my 2nd pregnancy, I was determined to not lose as much of my glute strength & appearance like I did the 1st time, & I want to show you exactly how to do the same.

The muscle group you’re missing in your pregnancy & postpartum workouts routine…

It’s the Serratus Anterior. This muscle is the secret to promoting better breathing, decreasing neck tension, reducing rib flare, improving overall alignment, and healing your core. (Save this for later)

During pregnancy and postpartum, our bodies undergo significant structural changes. As the baby grows, the ribs flare and the diaphragm flattens, often compromising our alignment.

This misalignment is frequently the root cause of neck, back, and pelvic pain, a weakened core, and for many, persistent pelvic floor dysfunction.

Working the serratus muscle will help you…

✅ Fix Rib Flare:

Pregnancy naturally expands the ribs. The serratus muscle helps get them back down and in.

✅ Better Breathing:

It allows your diaphragm to expand properly, which optimizes how your body manages pressure. By reducing the strain on your abs and pelvic floor, you can focus on healing your core and effectively manage or eliminate pelvic floor symptoms.

✅ Decrease Neck Pain:

By stabilizing your scapula, it takes the load off your neck and chest (perfect for those long feeding sessions or when you feel like you are constantly holding your baby!).

✅ Relieve Back Pain:

It helps your obliques fire, which pulls the ribs into a better position and improves core bracing. This naturally reduces that deep lower back arch and eliminates the compensatory strain on your spine.

Some exercises you can try are serratus push ups, wall slides, or planks on a ball to help you feel stronger from the inside out.

If you’re scrolling social media and seeing postpartum core routines that include only heel slides, glute bridges, and deadbugs... hit the save button, then come back here because that’s the advice that keeps you stuck..

Listen, Phase 1 movements (like those deadbugs and heel slides) are your non-negotiable foundation. 

They help you..

👉🏼 Re-establish pressure and timing because DR is more than just a gap.

👉🏼 Remember how to actually use your deep core system.

But here is the truth..

To truly heal, strengthen, and prepare your core so you can get back to the workouts you love there is more to just those basic, non-weighted, deep core movements.

You also need to..

✅ Load those muscles with weight

Lasting strength comes from adding weight. This challenges your core to stabilize against a greater force, which is necessary for strengthening your abs and preparing them for the demands of higher intensity workouts and daily life.

✅ Move your abs through different planes of motion

To heal and strengthen fully, you must train your muscles to resist and create movement across all planes of motion. This includes exercises focused on anti-rotation (like Pallof presses), rotation (like Russian twists), and lateral flexion. This prepares your core for the dynamic, multi-directional demands of your favorite activities

✅ Not be afraid of crunches (crunches aren’t the devil)

There is a readiness factor but you also need to know how to manage pressure within your core system so you do them correctly while still healing

✅ Get on a lifting routine

There’s more to healing your core than just doing abs. You can strengthen your abs in other ways too

Don’t let conservative advice keep you feeling stuck.

If you’re ready for the full roadmap that takes the guesswork out of your core healing after babies so you can close the gap, regain tension, and improve your “mom pooch,” then comment MOMMA EVAL below to learn more and book a session with Mary, our Pre- & Postnatal Fitness Specialist at Revive Wellness!
