How to get a flat stomach after pregnancy?
When you leave maternity ward, it can be a little depressing to realize that there is still a lot of weight to lose and that you no longer fit into your old jeans. It can be tempting to rush to exercise, diet and eat less to achieve rapid weight loss. In reality, after the baby arrives, resuming a healthy lifestyle is the sine qua non condition for quickly recovering from childbirth and regaining your pre-pregnancy figure.
It seems logical, but we can't repeat it enough: paying attention to your diet and eating correctly (without necessarily going on a diet), drinking enough water and staying active is the first step to eliminating your pregnancy pounds, and dislodging the fat installed at the waist, hips and abdominal belt! No question of starving yourself and counting calories: as a young mother, you need all your energy to recover from childbirth and take care of this little baby. So eat everything, in reasonable quantities, and weight loss will happen gradually.
Good to know: breastfeeding can help you get a flat stomach faster. In fact, it causes micro-contractions in your belly, which will accelerate the repositioning of the uterus. The production of breast milk requires energy: the body will draw on its fat reserves to produce this precious liquid, and burn between 200 and 500 calories more each day.
The first instinct, when we talk about finding a firm and flat stomach, is often to say to ourselves “You just need to do abs to strengthen your abdominal muscles”. Not so fast! After giving birth, you will need to give your body some time to recover from this wonderful adventure. A postpartum visit with your gynecologist or midwife is scheduled 6 to 8 weeks after birth. He will assess the tone of your perineum: this muscle supports the weight of the baby for nine months and must be well toned to resume physical activity. Most women will need to go through pelvic floor rehabilitation including floor exercises before being able to engage in high-intensity sports and abs to tone their stomach muscles. In the event of a cesarean section, you will have to wait until the scar is no longer painful and the tissues are well closed, i.e. three to five months after giving birth, before resuming sport.
During this period you may need a little help to speed things up and tighten the skin on your stomach (and also firm other areas such as the thighs, buttocks or hips): you will then need to turn to a more specific beauty routine , with treatments specially formulated for young mothers who want to regain a flat stomach. This is good because at Daylily we have designed body products that will help you find a harmonious silhouette! We tell you everything about your new post-pregnancy care routine !
Le Baume Onctueux is one of our best-sellers, a cream popular with young mothers for its effectiveness and its 3-in-1 action: firming, anti-cellulite and anti-stretch mark. It contains a magical active ingredient of natural origin, Body3Complex. Based on Avocado kernel extract, Bentonite and Shea butter, it promotes lipolysis (the destruction of fat), stimulates collagen production and regenerates the epidermis. Consequence: cellulite, which often appears during pregnancy, fades, stretch marks diminish, and your skin regains tone and suppleness in one gesture. Le Baume Onctueux represents a real time saver in the bathroom, because we know that it is not always easy to take care of yourself with a little baby at home!

Erasing your stretch marks after pregnancy
If you're one of the unlucky ones who saw purplish streaks appear during those nine months (or after birth, as the skin can also become covered in stretch marks when you lose weight), you may want some intensive treatment to erase, after childbirth, which resembles real pregnancy scars .
This is also the right time to tackle this problem, because red stretch marks (the most recent, which reflect inflammation of the dermis) are easier to dislodge than their white counterparts, which can be eliminated by surgery !
Fans of cream textures will find what they are looking for with our Creamy Balm (again), while fans of the oil texture will opt for L’Huile Sensorielle anti-stretch mark. These two anti-stretch mark body products contain a complex of five very nourishing and healing softening vegetable oils (Olive, Muscat Rose, Sweet Almond, Macadamia Nut and Avocado). Do not hesitate to use them alternately morning and evening, in a deep and pleasant massage, paying particular attention to problem areas. To reinforce the effectiveness of these treatments, you can exfoliate with Le Gant Sublimateur on the desired areas. In circular movements, use it using Les Bulles Lavantes.

Care 100% adapted for a young mother
Perhaps during your pregnancy you got into the habit of paying close attention to the face and body products you used? This is a very good reflex, because many treatments are not suitable for pregnant women and young mothers. Essential oils, endocrine disruptors, among others, can be harmful to the child's health. The same precautions apply if you have chosen to breastfeed your little one, as these substances can pass into breast milk and be ingested by your baby.
With Daylily products, no worries for your health: our treatments are free of harmful or controversial ingredients during pregnancy and the breastfeeding period. They meet a strict cosmetic charter, on which we are uncompromising ! You can therefore use them with your eyes closed at all stages of pregnancy, and after childbirth to continue to take care of yourself!
