ALIA BHATT PENS POST ON POSTPARTUM AND BODY POSITIVITY

The actor captioned her post as, “One and a half months post-partum, after gradually re-building my connection with my core, and with full guidance from my teacher @anshukayoga I was able to attempt this inversion today. To my fellow mamas, listening to your body post-delivery is key.
Do NOT do anything your gut tells you not to. For the first week or two during my workouts, all I did was breathe… walk… find my stability and balance again (& I still have a long way to go)
Take your time – appreciate what your body has done. After what my body did this year I have taken a vow to never be hard on myself again. Childbirth is a miracle in every way, and giving your body that love and support that it gave you is the least we can do ???? P.S – everybody is different – pls speak to your doctor before doing anything that involves exercise ????.”

WHAT IS POSTPARTUM?

The postpartum (or postnatal) period begins after childbirth and is typically considered to end within 6 weeks as the mother’s body, including hormone levels and uterus size, returns to a non-pregnant state as per Wikipedia. The terms puerperium, puerperal period, or immediate postpartum period are commonly used to refer to the first six weeks following childbirth. ^{The World Health Organization (WHO) describes the postnatal period as the most critical and yet the most neglected phase in the lives of mothers and babies; most maternal and newborn deaths occur during this period.}

The postpartum period can be divided into three distinct stages; the initial or acute phase, 8–19 hours after childbirth; subacute postpartum period, which lasts two to six weeks, and the delayed postpartum period, which can last up to eight months. In the subacute postpartum period, 87% to 94% of women report at least one health problem. ^{Long-term health problems (persisting after the delayed postpartum period) are reported by 31% of women. Various organizations recommend routine postpartum evaluation at certain time intervals in the postpartum period.}

Alia will next be seen in Karan Johar’s romance-drama Rocky Aur Rani Ki Prem Kahani, co-starring Ranveer Singh, Dharmendra, Shabana Azmi and Jaya Bachchan in crucial roles.
